Heather, you can archive this under the Chronosequence litterfall study.
 
Dusty has a graph of litterfall mass by year, stacked by species, which will need to be corrected for the proper "other" species (we had mistakenly included "other" masses than leaves, which is what Mary has now corrected).  I don't think he should do anything with it, now; there is still another year to be corrected for "other" mass.  So we just need to make sure we can find it after he's gone and someone else needs to update it.
 
We've been waiting for this since last summer!  Must be that Mary's semester is winding up.

Great!  
 
I'll check with Dusty to make sure that we have his graph archived--assuming you don't finish 1995 before he goes.  If you like a target deadline, his last day of work is Dec 12.  I think we can assume that my next tech will have to get familiar with these data sets.  Or maybe it will go back to BB; he's motivated to finish papers and get an academic job this year.

Ruth,
Here is the 1996 excel file with the litter mass data in it.  I have added a column, in bold, for the ‘other’ leaf litter mass.  I think it is safe to assume that this litter is a conglomeration of the other species, and treat it accordingly in terms of chemistry.  I will now work with the 1995 litter data set.  This one is more complicated, because we found only one of the sample dates.
