Soil Moisture (gravimetric)
Data in the KBS LTER core database may not be published without written permission of the lead investigator or project director Full terms of use
gravimetric soil moisture at sites of GLBRC Marginal Land Experiment. This data is mostly the same as in https://data.sustainability.glbrc.org/datatables/613 with the addition of the measurements taken under the rainout shelters.
This datatable is part of the MLE – Rainfall Exclusion Experiment dataset. This dataset contains data from Rainfall Exclusion Experiment at Marginal Land Sites. The purpose of the experiment is to learn the drought effects on switchgrass. Data in this dataset can also be found in the dataset of Marginal Land Experiment.
