University of Wisconsin Antarctic Soils Database, Version 1

The University of Wisconsin Antarctic Soils Database contains data collected by Dr. James G. Bockheim and his colleagues from 1975 through 1987. Data include site information, air and soil temperature measurements, soil profile features, and surface boulder weathering features for 482 sites in the McMurdo Sound area of Antarctica. Soil profile descriptions are provided for soils inside the McMurdo Dry Valleys from 23 December 1975 to 22 December 1987, and outside the Dry Valleys from 13 November 1978 to 04 January 1986. Chemical and physical properties of soils at 214 sites are also provided. The study area is confined to 77 deg 7.5 min S to 78 deg S, 160 deg E to 164 deg E. Data are in tab-delimited ASCII text format, and are available via ftp.威斯康星大学南极土壤数据库（University of Wisconsin Antarctic Soils Database）收录了詹姆斯·G·博克海姆（James G. Bockheim）博士及其研究团队在1975年至1987年间采集的土壤相关数据。该数据集涵盖南极洲麦克默多湾（McMurdo Sound）区域内482个采样点的场地信息、气温与土壤温度监测数据、土壤剖面特征以及地表砾石风化特征。其中，麦克默多干谷（McMurdo Dry Valleys）内部的土壤剖面记录时段为1975年12月23日至1987年12月22日，干谷外部的土壤剖面记录时段则为1978年11月13日至1986年1月4日。数据集同时提供了214个采样点的土壤理化性质数据。本次研究的区域范围限定为南纬77°7.5′至78°S、东经160°至164°E。数据集采用制表符分隔的ASCII（ASCII）文本格式存储，可通过FTP协议获取。
