WHONDRS 48-Hour Diel Cycling Study

The 48 Hour Diel Cycling Study occurred in 2018 and targeted time-series sampling across seven locations with different drivers of daily or sub-daily river stage variation. Surface water and hyporheic pore water samples were collected at the same location every three hours for 48 hours in systems driven by hydropower dams (WA, USA), wastewater effluent (TN, USA; Germany), glacial melt (WA, USA), tidal fluctuations (GA, USA), evapotranspiration (OR, USA), and irrigation pumping (Israel).

Data types

Surface water and pore water:

  • anions
  • cations
  • total N
  • NPOC
  • specific conductivity
  • pH
  • FTICR-MS (EMSL)
  • hydrograph (USGS and others)
  • metagenomics (via Kelly Wrighton at Colorado State University and the Joint Genome Institute)

Ideas for science questions to explore with the data

  • Is there a core metabolome globally shared between surface and pore water and are molecular properties of this core metabolome distinct from the transient metabolome?
  • Do molecular properties of dissolved organic matter vary on sub-daily timescales in parallel with hydrologic dynamics?
  • How does the metabolic potential of microbial communities differ between surface and pore water, and are there sub-daily temporal dynamics that can be linked to biochemical processes associated with dissolved organic matter?
