Abstract:
This dataset describes the transect and plots labels for each samples, along with the depth, mass, volume, density, dry mass, %weight loss, and %C and %N issued from elemental analysis.
Coverage:
Median Latitude: 64.130807 * Median Longitude: -51.386441 * South-bound Latitude: 64.130408 * West-bound Longitude: -51.387097 * North-bound Latitude: 64.131113 * East-bound Longitude: -51.386163
Minimum Elevation: 38.5 m * Maximum Elevation: 39.2 m
Event(s):
Nuuk_T1-0 * Latitude: 64.131113 * Longitude: -51.386163 * Elevation: 39.2 m * Location: Nuuk, Greenland * Method/Device: Multiple investigations (MULT)
Comment:
Other quantities described in the paper are easily computed via the following formulas :
bulk density (g/cm³) = dry_mass/volume = density*(1-%weight_loss)
soil carbon density (g C/m³) = bulk density * %C
soil nitrogen density (g C/m³) = bulk density * %N.
