NGEE Arctic Plant Traits: Soil Cores, Kougarok Road Mile Marker 64, Seward Peninsula, Alaska, 2016
Soil cores were collected from twelve vegetation biomass plots at the Kougarok hillslope in late July of 2016. The sampled plots were located across six ecotypes present at this site (n=2 replicates per ecotype). Soil cores were separated into depth intervals in the field and frozen for transport to...

Summary: | Soil cores were collected from twelve vegetation biomass plots at the Kougarok hillslope in late July of 2016. The sampled plots were located across six ecotypes present at this site (n=2 replicates per ecotype). Soil cores were separated into depth intervals in the field and frozen for transport to Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Laboratory sample processing of these soils generated data on soil texture, pH, gravimetric water content, bulk density, bulk soil %C and %N. Water extracts were performed on subsamples for determination of extractable total nitrogen, inorganic nitrogen, organic nitrogen, phosphorus, and dissolved organic carbon. |
