Summary:

This data set was gridded from vector layers of soil maps that were received from Dr. Darwin Anderson TE-01 who did the original soil mapping in the field during 1994. The vector layers were gridded into raster files that cover approximately 1 square kilometer over each of the tower sites in the SSA.

A guide document which includes more information about this data set can be found at https://daac.ornl.gov/daacdata/boreas/TE/soilte1r/comp/TE01_SSA_Soils_AEAC.txt.

ORNL DAAC maintains information on the entire BOREAS Project.
