Abstract

All data is collected from across 3 soil cores spanning a pH gradient at Point Reyes National Seashore, as part of a recent publication. The bulk data csv includes hygroscopic moisture content, soil pH, total C and N values, particle size distributions, cation exchange capacity and extractable cations. The STXM data package includes raw spectra data from scanning transmission X-ray microscopy C near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy analysis, extracted from STXM Image Reader analysis and then subsequently normalised in Athena (see details in paper). The data file also contains a bulk chemistry and mineralogy dataset, including total and trace element contents from 3 depths and mineral compositions as measured at BL 11-3 SSRL and semi-quantified in HighScore. Finally the final data file is calcium K-edge X-ray absorption near-edge structure spectroscopy (BL 4-3) and micro-XANES and micro-X-ray fluorescence (BL 14-3b) data.

Association between soil organic carbon and calcium in acidic grassland soils from Point Reyes National Seashore, CA

Journal Article Rowley, Mike C. ; Nico, Peter S. ; Bone, Sharon E. ; ... - Biogeochemistry

Organo-mineral and organo-metal associations play an important role in the retention and accumulation of soil organic carbon (SOC). Recent studies have demonstrated a positive correlation between calcium (Ca) and SOC content in a range of soil types. However, most of these studies have focused on soils that contain calcium carbonate (pH > 6). To assess the importance of Ca-SOC associations in lower pH soils, we investigated their physical and chemical interaction in the grassland soils of Point Reyes National Seashore (CA, USA) at a range of spatial scales. Multivariate analyses of our bulk soil characterisation dataset showed a strong correlationmore »« less
Grassland Management and Conversion into Grassland: Effects on Soil Carbon

Dataset Conant, R. ; Paustian, K. ; Elliot, E.

Grasslands are heavily relied upon for food and forage production. A key component for sustaining production in grassland ecosystems is the maintenance of soil organic matter (SOM), which can be strongly influenced by management. Many management techniques intended to increase forage production may potentially increase SOM, thus sequestering atmospheric carbon (C). Further, conversion from either cultivation or native vegetation into grassland could also sequester atmospheric carbon. We reviewed studies examining the influence of improved grassland management practices and conversion into grasslands on soil C worldwide to assess the potential for C sequestration.

Monitoring of ground water table depth and soil moisture at the Point Reyes field site

Dataset Dafflon, Baptiste ; Pegoraro, Elaine ; Seubert, Hunter ; ...

Ground water table (GWT) depth and soil moisture (SM) have been monitored at several locations at the Point Reyes field site (Californian coastal grassland) from 2021 to 2024. Monitoring is still on-going and data may be added to this archive at later time. The SM data have been acquired using Teros 12 Meter soil moisture sensors placed at 10, 30, 60 and 90 cm depth at 5 locations along a small hillslope. These sensors also collect soil temperature and bulk conductance. In addition, some collocated sensors provide pore pressure and Photochemical Reflectance Index (PRI). The GWT depth has been inferredmore »« less

Changes in Soil Organic Carbon and Nitrogen as a Result of Cultivation

Dataset Post, W. M. ; Mann, L. K.

We assembed and analyzed a data base of soil organic carbon and nitrogen information from over 1100 profiles in order to explore factors related to the changes in storage of soil organic matter resulting from land conversion. The relationship between cultivated and uncultivated organic carbon and nitrogen storage in soils can be described by regression lines with uncultivated storage on the abscissa, and cultivated storage on the ordinate. The slope of the regression lines is less than 1 indicating that the amount of carbon or nitrogen lost is an increasing fraction of the intial amount stored in the soil. Averagemore »« less
