Susquehanna Shale Hills Critical Zone Observatory
0.08 km2, 256-310 m elevation, 9.5 °C, 1050 mm/yr
Our interdisciplinary team works collaboratively in one observatory to advance methods for characterizing regolith, to provide a theoretical basis for predicting the distribution and properties of regolith, and to theoretically and experimentally study the impacts of regolith on fluid pathways, flow rates, and residence times.

Cole Farm (Agricultural Site)
0.65 km2,
The Cole Farm catchment (0.65km2) is located ~ 4 km southwest of the Shale Hills site, draining orthogonally to a syncline axis of the Wills Creek Formation, a calcareous shale containing interbedded siltstone, sandstone, shaly limestone, and dolomite. Even though the farm adopted no-till practices in the 1970s, the axial channel of Cole Farm flows over a thick (>2.5 m) package of sediment in the valley floor. Soils range in texture from silty clay at the ridge top to sandy loam in the valley floor.

Garner Run - Sandstone Forested
Garner Run Sandstone Forested site is situated on both sides of a segment of Garner Run, a tributary of Shavers Creek, on sandstone bedrock of slopes of Leading Ridge and Tussey Mountain in Huntingdon County, PA. (1.34km2), located ~ 3.5 km north of the Shale Hills site, is a headwater catchment with a small stream flowing parallel to a syncline fold axis of Tuscarora Formation, an erosionally resistant orthoquartzic sandstone with minor interbedded shale units. Surficial geology is largely controlled by periglacial alteration, such as slumps and solifluction lobes associated with thawing permafrost soils.

Sites with constant parent lithology (Silurian Rose Hill Formation) used to study the effects of climate on regolith formation, soil geochemistry, formation and erosion. The sites are operated in collaboration between Penn State and six partner institutions.

Wales, UK
7.2 °C, 2500 mm/yr
The Wales transect site is located near Llanidloes, Wales, United Kingdom. The sampling site is within the Hafren Forest at an elevation of 1352 ft. The forest is a 4,000 ha area actively logged by the Forestry Commission and used for recreation. Historical uses include copper and lead mining and sheep grazing in some parts of the watershed. The source of the River Severn, which terminates near Bristol, UK, is found at the top of the watershed, not far from Pumlumon, the highest mountain in mid-Wales. The watershed has been extensively monitored by the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology for 40 years and is commonly referred to as Plynlimon. Sitka Spruce is the dominant vegetation and the underlying shale is called the Gwestyn Formation, which is equivalent to the Rose Hill Shale but has undergone some regional metamorphism. The climate is cold and very wet, with 60% of rain falling between October and March; air frost has been recorded in every month. Mean annual precipitation is 250 cm and mean annual temperature is 7.2 °C.
Colgate University NY
8.3 °C, 1000 mm/yr
The New York transect site is located near Paris, New York, in Oneida County, about thirty minutes from Colgate University. Private landowners have generously allowed use of their land for soil sampling and installation of a weather tower. The shale is part of the Clinton Group, which is equivalent to the Rose Hill Shale farther south in Pennsylvania. The site has thick forest cover and a perennial stream; elevation is 719 ft. Winters are harsh and cold and summers are moderate. Mean annual precipitation is 100 cm and mean annual temperature is 8.3 °C.

Marcellus shale is well known as a natural gas play in the northeastern United States of America. A fracture density and geochemical study was conducted on Marcellus outcrops in central Pennsylvania to better understand physical and chemical weathering processes and relationships within the weathering profile of the Marcellus. The fracture density study served to provide quantitative data on the abundance of fractures in exposed Marcellus shale. As hypothesized, progressively higher fracture density values (FDV) were calculated closer to the soil profile. Understanding fracture densities and their associated depths can be used to explain why soil formation rates are faster. A study of this kind also has applications to natural gas extraction. The geochemical study was conducted to observe elemental depletion and movement within the soil profile. Lysimeters were installed to collect soil water in which major, trace elements, and Cu isotope compositions were measured. These concentrations and isotope ratios are important to understanding the extent of biogeochemical reactions.
Washington and Lee VA
13 °C, 1400 mm/yr
The Virginia transect site is located about 20 km from Lexington, VA, home of Washington and Lee University. The site is within the Goshen Wildlife Management Area, east of the Goshen Branch. The shale is Rose Hill Shale. The site has thick forest cover and is situated on a very flat ridgetop flanked by steep slopes, at an elevation of 2800 ft. Winters are cold and summers are warm. Mean annual precipitation is 140 cm and mean annual temperature is 13 °C.
Univ of Tennessee TN
14.2 °C, 1220 mm/yr
The Tennessee transect site is located in Big Ridge State Park, near Maynardville, TN, about 25 miles from the University of Tennessee campus in Knoxville. The 3,687 acre park surrounds the Norris Lake Reservoir. The sampling site is located on the tallest ridge, at an elevation of 1444 ft; the Smoky Mountains can be seen in the distance. The site is in the lower 10m of the Rose Hill Shale Formation, adjacent to the Tuscarora Sandstone Formation, which is exposed on the ridge. Winters are mild, with occasional snow, and summers are warm and humid. Mean annual precipitation is 122 cm and mean annual temperature is 14.2 °C. The site is located 36.27357 latitude and -83.91348 longitude.
Alabama A&M AL
15.6 °C, 1370 mm/yr
The Alabama transect site is located in Lake Guntersville State Park, near Lake Guntersville, AL, approximately 50 minutes from the Alabama A&M University campus. The site is on the Monsanto Tract of the park, which has not been developed for recreational purposes. The shale here is called the Red Rock Formation but is equivalent to the Rose Hill Shale in other parts of the transect. At an elevation of 758 ft., the site has thick forest cover and is adjacent to Lake Guntersville. Winters are very mild and summers are very hot and humid. Mean annual precipitation is 137 cm and mean annual temperature is 15.6 °C. The site is located at 34.42292 latitude and -86.20667 longitude.
U of Puerto Rico - Mayaguez
24.4 °C, 2100 mm/yr
The Puerto Rico transect site is located on private property off Rt. 111 between Juncal and Lares, Puerto Rico, about 30 miles northeast of the University of Puerto Rico, Mayaguez. The site is located on the San Sebastian formation, an Oligocene-age shale that is chemically similar to the Silurian-age Rose Hill Shale underlying other transect sites. Site elevation is 1,200 feet and vegetation is tropical, including numerous banana plants and palm trees. Winters are extremely mild and summers are hot and wet. Mean annual precipitation is 210 cm and mean annual temperature is 24.4 °C. The site is located at 18.30083 latitude and -66.90668 longitude.

Data Use Policy
DRAFT v.0.4.0
1. Use our data freely. All CZO Data Products* except those labelled Private** are released to the public and may be freely copied, distributed, edited, remixed, and built upon under the condition that you give acknowledgement as described below. Non-CZO data products — like those produced by USGS or NOAA — have their own use policies, which should be followed.
2. Give proper citation and acknowledgement. Publications, models and data products that make use of these datasets must include proper citation and acknowledgement. Most importantly, provide a citation in a similar way as a journal article (i.e. author, title, year of publication, name of CZO “publisher”, edition or version, and URL or DOI access information. See http://www.datacite.org/whycitedata). Also include at least a brief acknowledgement such as: “Data were provided by the NSF-supported Southern Sierra Critical Zone Observatory” (replace with the appropriate observatory name).
3. Let us know how you will use the data. The dataset creators would appreciate hearing of any plans to use the dataset. Consider consultation or collaboration with dataset creators.
*CZO Data Products. Defined as a data collected with any monetary or logistical support from a CZO.
**Private. Most private data will be released to the public within 1-2 years, with some exceptionally challenging datasets up to 4 years. To inquire about potential earlier use, please contact us.
