This excel workbook contains sheets with data obtained from soil samples that were were collected from permafrost in the Arctic tundra. The samples were incubated and analyzed for soil chemistry and physical characteristics, and microbial biomass and gas production. Measurements are reported at time zero, before incubation, and at harvest, after incubation. Gas flux rates and cumulative production are reported.
