Nitrogen Deposition and Climate Change Effects on Tree Species Composition and Ecosystem Services: A Cohort Analysis in

Published by U.S. EPA Office of Research and Development (ORD) | U.S. Environmental Protection Agency | Metadata Last Checked: June 27, 2025 | Last Modified: 2017-10-26
A tree database representing a single cohort of trees was assembled using data from U.S Forest Service monitoring plots. Applying existing species specific response relationships from Thomas et al. (2010), we simulated how forest stands in a 19-state study area would change (biomass and stem density) from 2005 to 2100 under 12 different future N deposition – climate scenarios based on historic levels, current policy and potential futures. This dataset is associated with the following publication: van Houtven, G., J. Phelan, C. Clark, R. Sabo, J. Buckley, R.Q. Thomas, K. Horn, and S. LeDuc. Nitrogen Deposition and Climate Change Effects on Tree Species Composition and Ecosystem Services: A Cohort Analysis. ECOLOGICAL MONOGRAPHS. Ecological Society of America, Ithaca, NY, USA, 75, (2018).
