Pearson correlation coefficient (<i>r</i>-value) and significance^* among soil variables in cover soils used for oil sands reclamation (n = 36).

aVariables: DOC = dissolved organic C, DON = dissolved organic N, MBC = microbial biomass C, MBN = microbial biomass N, SWC = gravimetric soil water content, NAGase = β-1,4-N-acetylglucosaminidase, GLU = β-1,4-glucosidase, CEL = cellobiohydrolase, PER = Peroxidase, and AWCD = average well color development measured after 168 hours of incubation; Values are Pearson correlation coefficient; * = p < 0.05; ** = p < 0.01.
