A comprehensive dataset on nitrate, Nitrite and dissolved organic carbon leaching losses from a 4-year Lysimeter study.

This article presents a dataset on nitrate, nitrite and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) losses measured for 4 years using lysimeters at the EFELE long-term experimental site (Le Rheu, France). This ongoing long-term study was designed to provide information on effects of organic waste product (OWP) application and soil tillage on crop production, soil properties, biodiversity, greenhouse gas emissions and water quality. Forty wick-fiber lysimeters were installed at depths of 40 and 90 cm to document effects of organic and/or mineral fertilization, vegetation cover and weather conditions on dynamics of nitrate, nitrite and DOC concentrations of water collected during the drainage season (winter).
