SPRUCE: Mass and Chemistry of Peat Ladder Decomposition Treatments, 2017-2020

Description

This data set reports on the mass and chemistry of peat inside decomposition ladders that were deployed at SPRUCE. Decomposition ladders were deployed on 2017-10-02 and collected on 2020-10-15 to observe peat decomposition and chemistry within four depth ranges (0-10cm, 10-20cm, 20-30cm, and 30-40cm). Data contain wet and oven-dried masses as well as percent nitrogen, percent carbon, and phosphorus concentration from the beginning of the deployment and after three years. These data are provided in two comma separated (*.csv) files. These treatments are ongoing and future data will be added to this dataset periodically.
