Macrofossil Characteristics of Soil from Shark River Slough, Everglades National Park (FCE) from July 2003 to February 2006

These data represent the results of macrofossil analyses on soil cores from Shark Slough sites, including FCE LTER sites SRS2, SRS3 and SRS4 and FCE related site NE-SRS1 from July 24,2003 to February 26, 2006. Soils from 1-cm depth increments were analyzed for macrofossil content (mainly seeds). These analyses contribute to a paleoecological study to quantify past changes in vegetation and soil accumulation in relation to past climate variation, fire occurrences and water management.
