Soil Bulk Density of Deep Cores — Biodiversity Gradient Experiment

Data in the KBS LTER core database may not be published without written permission of the lead investigator or project director Full terms of use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 bulk density of deep cores (to ~ 1m) taken in treatments B2, B5, B8, B11, B15, B18 and B21 of the LTER Biodiversity Gradient Experiment in the fall 2020 after its retirement in 2019 and during the following planting to sorghum. Two cores were taken per replicate plot (one in the sorghum row, the other between rows) and sectioned into 4 depth intervals.

This datatable is part of the Soil Properties of the Biodiversity Gradient Experiment dataset.

A collection of soil property measurements from the Biodiversity Gradient Experiment.
