Agronomic Soil Chemistry — Nitrogen Deposition Study - LTER
Data in the KBS LTER core database may not be published without written permission of the lead investigator or project director Full terms of use
Soil chemistry of surface (0-25 cm) samples occasionally collected from the nitrogen fertilized microplots (1F, 3F and 10F) of the Nitrogen Deposition Study located adjacent to the main plots of the MCSE Mid-successional (SF) and Coniferous (CF) and Deciduous (DF) forested sites. Note that the 0F nitrogen treatment refers to samples collected within the main plot, which is unfertilized.t
This datatable is part of the Agronomic Soil Chemistry dataset.
Soil samples are typically collected in the fall and sent to an analytical laboratory for nutrient analysis and for fertilizer and liming recommendations for the following spring. Analyses include pH, cation exchange capacity, lime index, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, magnesium, zinc, sulfur, and boron.
