Plant biomass in mesic acidic tussock tundra, 1998 15N controls, Toolik, Alaska.

Five or six quadrats (20cm x 20cm squares) along a line (block) were collected for plant biomass in mesic tussock tundra. In the lab each quadrat was separated into individual species, new and old aboveground and belowground biomass.
