Inorganic and Enzyme-Labile Organic Phosphorus of Soil Samples at 300 Locations within the Forest Dynamics Plot on Barro Colorado Island, Panama

A dataset containing citric acid extractable inorganic and enzyme-labile organic phosphorus fractions of top soil samples at 300 locations within the ForestGEO 50 ha forest dynamics plot on Barro Colorado Island (BCI) in the Republic of Panama. This dataset is supplement to the journal article "Evidence for Soil Phosphorus Resource Partitioning in a Diverse Tropical Tree Community".The dataset columns are the following:IDPoint: sample idGX: x-coordinate of sample location, in meterGY: y-coordinate of sample location, in meterDateSampling: sampling dateReacP: mass fraction of molybdate reactive phosphorus, in mg P / kg soilMonoP: mass fraction of monoesterase-hydrolyzable phosphorus, in mg P / kg soilNucP: mass fraction of nuclease-hydrolyzable phosphorus, in mg P / kg soilNonHydP: mass fraction of non-hydrolyzed phosphorus, in mg P / kg soilUnreacP: mass fraction of molybdate unreactive phosphorus, in mg P / kg soilTotalP: mass fraction of total phosphorus in the citric acid extract (determined by acid-persulphate digestion), in mg P / kg soilMeasurements below detection limit are indicated by missing values (NA).
