Comparative analysis of nutrient concentrations in generalist and specialist tree species and soils, Manaus, Brazil
Abstract
This dataset was collected near Manaus, Brazil, at ZF-2 site, inside the North-South transect plots from 20221011 to 20221020. Measurements were made on specialists and generalist tree species along topographic gradient (in upland high-clay content soils of plateaus and high sandy content and partially flooded soils of valleys). We selected nine species (with four replicates each, totaling 35 individuals) occurring in different topographic positions: three plateau specialists, three valley specialists, and three generalists, where leaf and trunk samples were collected from each individual, and soil samples for carbon and nutrient analysis and quantification. Three soil pits were opened around each sample tree, about one meter apart (total of 105 soil pits each 60-cm deep), where soil samples were collected at four depths: 0-5, 5-10, 10-30 and 30-50 cm. In each of the three pits around each tree, one single sample was taken at each depth and combined to obtain a composite sample per depth per individual tree (35 trees × 4 depths = 140 soil samples). The files “Plant_Nutrient_Concentrations_NS_Transect_Manaus.csv” and “Soil_Nutrient_Concentrations_NS_Transect_Manaus.csv” contain the nutrient concentration data from plant and soil material, respectively. Additionally, the file “Sample_Info.csv” contains details about each variable including units and data type. The file “Species_Info.csv” includesmore »
