Replicate soil pits were dug in two river drainages in 2011. Soil was sampled by major horizon, down to the bottom of the active layer at three times over the summer as soils thawed. Samples were analyzed for carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and phosphorus (P) pools. Sites also spanned a range of vegetatio...
