Three cores were taken. Core 1 was within 20 cm of the tree, Core 2 was taken half way between the trees and core 3 was taken halfway between core 1 and core 3. Each core was split into four depths and the roots were separated from the soil.Rot+biomas+on+T5.csvNone311\ncolumn,no"\https://lter.kbs.msu.edu/datatables/483.csvsample_dateDate the soil was removed from the fieldDate the soil was removed from the fieldtreatmentthe LTER treatmentthe LTER treatmentreplicatethe replicatethe replicatecorethe core numberthe core numberdistance_from_tree_cmthe distance from the tree (20 cm = at most 20 cm)the distance from the tree (20 cm = at most 20 cm)core_area_m2the core areathe core areacore_length_cmthe length of the core sectionthe length of the core sectiontop_depth_cmdepth to the top of the core sectiondepth to the top of the core sectionbottom_depth_cmdepth to the bottom of the core sectiondepth to the bottom of the core sectionspeciesthe probable plant species sampledthe probable plant species sampledroot_weight_gdry weight of the roots extracted from the coredry weight of the roots extracted from the corecommentscommentscomments
