Title: Microbial Biomass in Soils Receiving Varying Levels of Organic Inputs - A Data Compilation

Abstract

This dataset contains soil microbial biomass data compiled from published laboratory studies and field manipulations of organic inputs to soils. Each study included at least three levels of a given type of organic input applied to a given type of soil. Studies were selected from the literature that had experimentally manipulated organic input rates to soils using unburned, non-synthetic material (e.g. plant litters, manures, and composts). Fifty-five (55) studies, conducted from 1997 to October 2019, were chosen and compiled into a dataset with 358 observations from 96 combinations of a given organic material applied to a given soil in agricultural systems, laboratory incubations, forests, or grasslands.

Carbon Organisms Rhizosphere and Protection in Soil Environment model script and input data for soil moisture-respiration responses in tropical forests

Dataset Sulman, Benjamin ; Cusack, Daniela

Objectives: Climatic drying is predicted for many tropical forests, yet models remain poorly parameterized for tropical forests, hampering predictions of forest-climate feedbacks. We applied an integrated model–experiment approach, parameterizing an ecosystem model Carbon Organisms Rhizosphere and Protection in the Soil Environment (CORPSE) with tropical forest observational data, and comparing model predictions with a field drying manipulation. We hypothesized that drying would suppress soil CO2 fluxes (i.e., respiration) in already-drier tropical forests, but increases CO2 fluxes in wetter tropical forests by alleviating anaerobiosis. We measured soil CO2 fluxes, soil moisture, soil temperature, and forest floor biomass during wet-dry cycles (2015 –more »« less

Soil Respiration and Microbial Biomass from Soil Incubations with 13C Labeled Additions

Dataset Kluber, L. A. ; Phillips, J. R. ; Singh, S. ; ...

This data set provides the respiration and soil microbial biomass data from a series of short and long-term laboratory incubation experiments with 13C labeled substrates to examine how plant communities (forest vs. grassland), edaphic properties, and microbial communities influence C cycling and the long-term fate of C in soil systems. Paired forest and grassland soils from four locations were incubated with 13C labeled glucose in a short-term (144 hours) study while 13C labeled cellulose was added to soils used in the long-term (729 days) study. Soil respiration, microbial biomass, and soil 13C values were monitored throughout the study. Soils weremore »« less
Soil Mesocosm CO2 Emissions after 13C-glucose Addition, Soil Physical and Chemical Characteristics, and Microbial Biomass, Barrow, Alaska, 2014-2016

Dataset Vaughn, Lydia ; Zhu, Qing ; Bimueller, Carolin ; ...

Measurements made from a 2014-2016 field glucose addition experiment. Dataset includes measurements of surface trace gas emissions (Delta13C of ecosystem respiration and source-partitioned surface CO2 flux, CH4 flux, and GPP), soil profile information (concentrations of carbon, nitrogen, and soil microbial biomass carbon, Delta13C of soil organic matter and microbial biomass, gravimetric water content, and bulk density), soil mineral nitrogen availability, and field-measured soil temperature, air temperature and soil moisture. Experiment was conducted in a region of high-centered polygons on the BEO. Data will be available Summer 2018.
Soil Nitrogen, Water Content, Microbial Biomass, and Archaeal, Bacterial and Fungal Communities from the East River Watershed, Colorado collected in 2016-2017

Dataset Sorensen, Patrick ; Brodie, Eoin ; Beller, Harry ; ...

This data set contains soil measurements made at the Pumphouse Hillslope to Floodplain transect at the locations of the early snowmelt-timing manipulation experiments in the East River Watershed in Colorado, USA. The data were collected in 2016 and 2017 to determine soil microbial responses to snow accumulation, snowmelt, and transition from winter to spring. Some additional data from the Washington Gulch snowmelt manipulation experiment lcoations are also included here.Data were collected on soil cores collected in the field at three soil depths (0 to 5 cm, 5 to 15 cm, 15 cm +) below the soil surface and analyzed inmore »« less
