BOREAS TE-20 SUPPLEMENTARY SITE INFORMATION FOR NSA TOWER SITES
Get Data

Summary:

The BOREAS TE-20 team collected several data sets for use in developing and testing models of forest ecosystem dynamics. This data set and documentation were compiled from field notes and other information provided by Hugo Veldhuis, who did the original soils mapping in the field during 1994. The information here describes the soils and landscape characteristics of the NSA-MSA and tower sites.

A guide document which includes more information about this data set can be found at https://daac.ornl.gov/daacdata/boreas/TE/te20supp/comp/TE20_Supp_Site_Data.txt.

ORNL DAAC maintains information on the entire BOREAS Project.
