Abstract:

Here we present soil characteristics from Alpine European larch and Swiss pine forests, as well as mixed forests. The forests are located in the LTSER area "Val Mazia/Matschertal" in the Vinschgau Valley, South Tyrol, Italy. Each three replicates from each forest type (larch, pine, and mixed) were sampled in late summer 2017.
