Summary of sampling effort represented in the Non-crop Biomass table, by Treatment, Replicate, Station, etc.
This datatable is part of the Primary Production of Herbaceous Systems of the Main Cropping System Experiment dataset.
This dataset contains the biomass data of herbaceous systems of the Main Cropping System Experiment (MCSE), including Treatments 1-4 and 6-8 at the LTER Main Site (since 1990) and the Mid-successional (TSF) site (since 1993). Included are the data collected at or near peak biomass to estimate aboveground net primary production (ANPP). Systems with multiple harvests or with peaks occurring at different times throughout the growing season may have multiple measurements per year. See the ANPP protocol for sampling and measurement methods of these treatments.
