Soil chemical and physical properties from a digestate (winter wheat trial) experiment at North Wyke and Henfaes Farm, UK (2017)

The data consist of soil physicochemical and biological data for three soil depths (0-15, 15-30 and 30-60 cm) from a winter wheat field experiment located at two research sites in the United Kingdom. Soil samples were collected between April 2017 and August 2017. Extractions and measurements were carried out thereafter. The sites were Rothamsted Research at North Wyke in Devon and Bangor University at Henfaes Research Station in North Wales. At each site measurements were taken from 15 plots, organised within a randomised complete block design where 5 plots did not receive fertilizers (controls), 5 plots received food-based digestate, and 5 plots received acidified food based digestate and the nitrification inhibitor 3,4-dimethylpyrazole (DMPP; ADNI). Soil samples were taken within 2 weeks of digestate application and shortly before winter wheat harvest. Microbial community composition and nitrogen genes were measured on the same soil samples and are presented in a separate dataset (https://catalogue.ceh.ac.uk/id/391c0294-07f1-4856-b592-428bd44055ca). Soil samples were taken by members of staff from Centre of Ecology & Hydrology (Bangor), Bangor University, School of Environment, Natural Resources & Geography Sustainable Agricultural Sciences, and Rothamsted Research North Wyke. Measurements were carried out Rothamsted Research Harpenden and the Centre of Ecology & Hydrology (Wallingford). Data was collected for the Newton Fund project “UK-China Virtual Joint Centre for Improved Nitrogen Agronomy”.

本数据集汇集了英国两个研究地点（德文郡的北威克罗瑟姆斯特德研究所以及威尔士北部的亨费斯研究站的班戈大学）冬季小麦试验田中三种土壤深度（0-15厘米、15-30厘米和30-60厘米）的土壤物理化学和生物数据。土壤样品采集于2017年4月至8月期间，随后进行了提取和测量。研究地点包括罗瑟姆斯特德研究所在德文郡的北威克以及班戈大学在威尔士北部的亨费斯研究站。在每个地点，测量均从15个地块中进行，这些地块按照随机完全区组设计组织，其中5个地块未施用肥料（对照），5个地块施用基于食物的消化物，5个地块施用酸化食物基消化物及硝化抑制剂3,4-二甲基吡唑（DMPP；ADNI）。消化物施用后的两周内以及冬季小麦收获前短时间内采集了土壤样品。在同一土壤样品上对微生物群落组成和氮基因进行了测量，相关数据以独立数据集的形式呈现（https://catalogue.ceh.ac.uk/id/391c0294-07f1-4856-b592-428bd44055ca）。土壤样品由生态与水文中心（班戈）、班戈大学环境、自然资源与地理可持续农业科学学院以及罗瑟姆斯特德研究所在北威克的员工采集。测量工作在罗瑟姆斯特德研究所哈普登和生态与水文中心（沃林福德）进行。数据收集旨在牛顿基金资助项目“中英虚拟联合中心——提高氮肥农业技术”。该项目由生物技术与生物科学研究中心（BBSRC）和自然与环境研究委员会（NERC）资助——参考编号BB/N013468/1。有关本数据集的详细信息，请参阅https://doi.org/10.5285/90df9dfa-a0c8-4ead-a13d-0a0a13cda7ab。
