Multiple Element Limitation in Northern Hardwood Ecosystems (MELNHE): Salt Exchangeable Cation Extractions from Hubbard Brook and Bartlett sites

Soil element concentrations (Na, Mg, K, Ca, Al, Mn, Fe, Si, Sr, and Ba) were measured in salt exchangeable extracts of soil samples taken in July 2017 in the MELNHE study, specifically in Bartlett stands C1-C9 and Hubbard Brook stands HBM and HBO. Additional detail on the MELNHE project, including a datatable of site descriptions and a pdf file with the project description and diagram of plot configuration can be found in this data package: https://portal.edirepository.org/nis/mapbrowse?scope=knb-lter-hbr&identifier=344. Additional analysis data on these samples can be found in the dataset "Soil properties in the MELNHE study at Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, Bartlett Experimental Forest and Jeffers Brook, central NH USA, 2009 - present" (https://portal.edirepository.org/nis/mapbrowse?scope=knb-lter-hbr&identifier=165). This work is a contribution of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study. Hubbard Brook is part of the LTER network, which is supported by the US National Science Foundation. The Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest is operated and maintained by the US Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Northern Research Station.
