- KBS140-001 Hourly volumetric soil moisturements from the REX experiment
We installed CS655 probes in the footprints of the REX experiment. All probes represent the 0 to 15 cm depth.
- KBS140-002 REX ANPP
- Annual crop total biomass and grain yields from the Rain Exclusion eXperiment (REX), from the continuous no-till (T2) treatment within the Main Cropping System Experiment (MCSE). Crop biomass was sampled within a 1m2 quadrat at harvest time after being exposed to three different rainfall regimes (Drought, Variable Rainfall, and Irrigated Control) over the course of the growing season. Total biomass includes stover mass and grain yields.
- LTER140_003 REX Stand Counts
- Stand counts of the REX plots were taken to estimate the plant populations in the REX footprints. This can serve as a covariate against yield or other plant parameters.
- LTER140_004 REX anpp
- Annual peak biomass harvest from the T2 plots of the REX experiment.
