Total phosphorus and total dissolved phosphorous released from Green Ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) and Norway Maple (Acer platanoides) as they contribute to leachable phosphorus in leaf litter and impact phosphorus loads in urban stormwater
April 20, 2022
The data set contains results from leaf litter samples analyzed for total phosphorus (TP) and total dissolved phosphorus (TDP) released from Green Ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica) and Norway Maple (Acer platanoides) leaves in three medium-density urban residential basins in Madison, WI, USA during October and November of 2017 and 2018. Tables contain averages and standard deviations for all replicates from TP and TDP leaching tests, fraction of TDP released within 48 hours, and average TDP release rate.

Leachable phosphorus from senesced green ash and Norway mapleleaves in urban watersheds
In urban watersheds, street tree leaf litter is a critical biogenic source of phosphorus (P) in stormwater runoff.
Stormwater extracts P from leaf litter and transports it, through the storm sewer network, to a receiving
waterbody potentially causing downstream eutrophication. The goal of this study is to understand P leaching dynamics of two prevalent tree species (Norway maple (Acer platanoides)
