/* DATA DESCRIPTION: Citation: Matschullat, Jörg (2024): Soil chemical database of the BraSol-2010 project [dataset]. PANGAEA, https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.969055 Abstract: This database contains all available data from the 2008 soil study in NE-Brazil. Soils were sampled in four interlinked E - W transects (A and B) plus a shorter transect in the driest part of Paraíba state (C transect) from the coast inland. Three layers were sampled in A and B: Litter from the surface avoiding mineral soil (ORG), the top 20 cm (TOP = 0-20 cm), and a deeper mineral soil layer (BOT = 30-50 cm). Transect C offers ORG and TOP samples. All samples were taken with discardable lab gloves. All mineral soil was sampled with Eijkelkamp soil augers. Litter samples were put into clean cotton bags; mineral soil double-bagged into labelled Rilsan® bags. Upon return to the university labs in Natal, all material was oven-dried and aliquoted (quartering). An aliquot each went to the Universities of Natal (UFRN) and Vicosa (Minas Gerais), the remainder transported to the Freiberg laboratories for all subsequent analytical work.
