Soil pH, exchangeable Al, and soil C in the surface soil (0–20 cm) of the Dinghushan (DHS) forest site

To analyze soil acidification rate in Dinghushan, we compiled the data on soil pH, exchangeable Al, and soil C from 1982 to 2013., Soil pH was measured using a soil to solution (H2O) ratio of 1:5 (w/v) following 1 h of shaking. Total C concentrations were determined using a CN analyzer (vario MAX CN; Elementar Analysensystem GmbH, Langenselbold, Germany). Exchangeable Al was determined by 1 M KCl extraction., , This README file was generated on 2023-12-19 by Kazumichi Fujii.
