Title: Biogeochemistry of a Forested Ecosystem
Author: Gene Likens
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media, 2013
Length: 208 pages
Summary: The pioneering watershed-ecosystem studies initiated at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest in 1963 underpin this thoroughly updated and in-depth analysis of the biogeochemistry of a forested ecosystem in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. In a novel synthesis of almost 50 years, this third edition summarizes and interprets these unique data on precipitation and streamwater chemistry, hydrology, and weathering and also considers the role of atmospheric gases and particles as they flow into and out of the ecosystem.

Title: Mirror Lake: Interactions Among Air,
 Land, and Water
Author: Thomas C. Winter, Gene E. Likens
Publisher: University of California Press, 2009
Length: 361 pages
Summary: Lakes change constantly in response to their surrounding landscape, and their airshed. Mirror Lake, located in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, has been carefully researched since the 1960s. This book summarizes and interprets the extensive data collected on this lake and its watershed from 1981 to 2000, a period during which the lake was affected by a variety of climate conditions as well as significant human activity.
