TL;DR: In this paper, Nitrate and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations during a summer storm for a forested catchment in the Adirondack Mountains displayed a clear separation in trajectories and timing of maximum values.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the quantitative biogeochemical model PnET-BGC to test assumptions about the direct and indirect effects of climate change on a northern hardwood forest ecosystem.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the quantitative biogeochemical model PnET-BGC to test assumptions about the direct and indirect effects of climate change on a northern hardwood forest ecosystem, showing an overall increase in net primary production due to a lon- ger growing season, an increase in NO3 - leaching due to large increases in net mineralization and nitrification, and slight de- clines in mineral weathering due to reduction in soil moisture.

TL;DR: In this article, two nearly adjacent subcatchments, located in the Adirondack Mountains of New York State, US, with similar atmospheric inputs of N (0.6 kmol ha-1 yr-1), but markedly different stream water solute concentrations, provided a unique opportunity to evaluate the mechanisms causing this variation.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on catchments S14 and S15 located in the Adirondack Mountains of New York, USA, which have similar topographic and hydrologic characteristics but contrasting stream nitrate (NO - 3 ) concentrations.
