Moisture Effect on Chitin Decomposition Biogeochemistry
- Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), Richland, WA (United States)
This dataset contains data files for multiple measurements of sample biogeochemistry and function collected for the Soils SFA Chitin Decomposition project in task 2.2. Samples were generated from soil incubated under different moisture levels, with and without chitin. Each sheet in the file refers to the preprocessed data collected. Sheet 1 "Respiration" measures CO2 production daily for the course of the incubation. Sheet 2 "Biomass" contains the microbial biomass and salt extractable measurements for carbon and nitrogen. Sheet 3 "Chitin" is for HPLC measured chitin from each sample. Sheet 4 "Extracellular Enzyme Assays" records the level of activity for several enzyme assays. Sheet 5 "Enzyme Kinetics" measures degradation of substrate over time for all samples.
