Site Description
Dakota Coteau Field Site (DCFS) is a terrestrial NEON field site located in Stuntsman County, North Dakota, approximately 160 km (100 mi.) northeast of Bismarck, in an area known as the "Prairie Pothole Region." This region includes a patchwork of grasslands, agricultural, and wetland/aquatic communities embedded in a matrix of small agrarian communities. This site is managed by the State of North Dakota Land Trust and is moderately grazed throughout the year. NEON sampling at DCFS occurs across nonadjacent land parcels interspersed by private land with a total sampling area of 2.6 km2 (642 acres). DCFS is part of NEON's Northern Plains Domain (D09). D09 has two other terrestrial field sites and two aquatic field sites. DCFS is colocated with the Prairie Lake at Dakota Coteau Field Site aquatic site (PRLA).
