Research Station Müncheberg

<p>The ZALF Focus Area – Muencheberg is situated 50km East of Berlin in the District of Maerkisch-Oderland. It borders the Naturpark Maerkische Schweiz (https://nationale-naturlandschaften.de/gebiete/naturpark-maerkische-schweiz, https://www.naturschutzfonds.de/natur-erleben/landschaften/naturpark-maerkische-schweiz). </p>
<p>It is a typical site of the glacial moraine landscape of the North German Lowland approx. 62 m above sea level. The site of the experimental station is from flat to easily incline. Typical soil types are Albic and Ortic Luvisols, Cambic and Luvic Arenosols. The soils are far from groundwater with mean clay content of around 5-10% in the top soil (0-25 cm). Carbon content, natural pH and the base-saturation are low. The topsoil (0-25 cm) contains around 1% humus. The soil is free of lime. It tends to acidification and requires regular liming. </p>
<p>The weather is characterised by a continental-influenced humid inland climate with an average of 548 mm precipitation and 8.9°C annual temperature (reference period 1981-2010). Compared to the period 1951-1980, temperature and rainfall have increased by 0.7°C and 19 mm, respectively. An increase of periods of pronounced pre-summer drought is the consequence of the changing climate. </p>
<h1>Main research tasks that are addressed in this focus area: </h1>

<p>The current focus of the trials is research on climate-adapted and diversity-promoting agricultural systems through the implementation of new crops in crop rotations, conservation tillage and reduced use of pesticides, especially herbicides. The research station Muencheberg is in charge of two long-term field trials, the "Müncheberger Nährstoffsteigerungsversuch V140/00” (https://doi.org/10.20387/bonares-8fhj-r52g) and the field model trial “Krumenaufbau” V210/02.
It manages 42 ha arable land. In addition to the classic field trials, the research station supports agricultural research in the agricultural landscape such as the landscape laboratory patchCrop (https://doi.org/10.4228/zalf-ztwg-fh58).</p> This part contains the metadata of all tables forming this data collection.

ZALF研究聚焦区——明谢贝格（Muencheberg）位于柏林以东50公里处的梅基施-奥得兰县（Maerkisch-Oderland），毗邻梅基施瑞士自然公园（Naturpark Maerkische Schweiz），相关链接：https://nationale-naturlandschaften.de/gebiete/naturpark-maerkische-schweiz、https://www.naturschutzfonds.de/natur-erleben/landschaften/naturpark-maerkische-schweiz。

该区域属于北德低地典型的冰碛地貌景观，海拔约62米。试验站场地地势平缓，略有缓坡。区域内典型土壤类型为漂白淋溶土（Albic Luvisols）、普通淋溶土（Ortic Luvisols）、砂质始成土（Cambic Arenosols）及砂质淋溶土（Luvic Arenosols）。该区域土壤远离地下水位，表层土壤（0-25 cm）的平均黏粒含量约为5%-10%。土壤碳含量、自然pH值及盐基饱和度均较低；表层土壤（0-25 cm）腐殖质含量约为1%，不含石灰质，易发生酸化，需定期施加石灰进行改良。

该区域气候受大陆性湿润内陆气候影响，1981-2010年基准期内年均降水量为548毫米，年均气温为8.9℃。相较于1951-1980年基准期，区域年均气温升高0.7℃，年均降水量增加19毫米；气候变化导致夏初严重干旱时段增多。

# 本研究聚焦区的核心研究任务：

当前试验研究重点为通过在作物轮作中引入新型作物、采用保护性耕作及减少农药（尤其是除草剂）使用，研发适应气候且促进生物多样性的农业系统。明谢贝格试验站负责两项长期田间试验：“明谢贝格养分增效试验V140/00”（https://doi.org/10.20387/bonares-8fhj-r52g）及田间模式试验“Krumenaufbau”V210/02。该站管理42公顷耕地，除经典田间试验外，还支持农业景观领域的农业研究，例如景观实验室patchCrop（https://doi.org/10.4228/zalf-ztwg-fh58）。本节包含构成本数据集的所有表格的元数据。
