Soil Carbon and Nutrients in the Luquillo Experimental Forest (LEF) related data sets


PROJECT DESCRIPTION: In this study, we examine the spatial variability of soil carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus in the Luquillo Experimental Forest (LEF) using a spatially explicit version of the CENTURY biogeochemistry model. We took soil samples from 119 locations in the Luquillo Mountain during the summer of 1998 and 1999. Then we compared the simulated soil C, N and P pools with observed values as a way to validate our simulation results.
