GIS45 GIS Coverages Defining the Konza Nutrient Data Sample Locations (1982-present)

These data show the sample locations for soil bulk density and chemical characteristics along LTER vegetation plots. This dataset contains the transect lines (GIS450) and sample locations(GIS451) at which the soil cores are sampled. These data may be used in conjunction with the Soil Chemistry and Bulk Density (NSC01) datasets. GIS455 contains the locations of the lysimeters used to measure soil water chemistry on the belowground plots. These data may be used in conjunction with the NBS01 dataset. GIS460 contains the locations of the bulk precipitation collectors on Konza Prairie. These data may be used in conjunction with the NBP01 dataset. These data are available to download as zipped shapefiles (.zip), compressed Google Earth KML layers (.kmz), and associated EML metadata (.xml).

本数据集展示了长期生态研究（Long-Term Ecological Research）植被样地沿线土壤容重（soil bulk density）与化学特性的采样点位。其中包含用于采集土芯（soil cores）的样带（transect lines，GIS450）及采样点位（sample locations，GIS451）。本数据集可与土壤化学与容重（NSC01）数据集联合使用。GIS455收录了地下样地中用于测定土壤水化学的渗漏计（lysimeters）布设点位，该数据集可与NBS01数据集联合使用。GIS460收录了康扎草原（Konza Prairie）上大气降水收集器（bulk precipitation collectors）的布设点位，该数据集可与NBP01数据集联合使用。上述数据集可通过压缩形状文件（shapefiles，.zip）、谷歌地球压缩KML图层（KML layers，.kmz）及配套的EML（Ecological Metadata Language）元数据（metadata）文件（.xml）三种格式下载。
