Summary
Twenty-eight sites that consisted of either predominantly agricultural land in the watershed, predominantly agricultural land in the watershed with natural land cover in the riparian zone, or predominantly natural land cover in the watershed were sampled three times during the growing season.
The objectives of this Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI) project were to assess how riparian land cover type in agricultural watersheds influences sediment nutrient processing, and if sediment nutrient processing changes throughout the growing season. These data can be used to describe what affects riparian land cover type have on sediment nutrient processing.
