Variables
Rep_ID
  • Label: Replicate
  • Definition: FoRTE replicate (A,B,C,D)
  • Type: Nominal
  • Missing values: None specified
Plot_ID
  • Label:
  • Definition: FoRTE plot (1,2,3,4) representing each disturbance severity within the 4 replicates.
  • Type: Nominal
  • Missing values: None specified
Subplot
  • Label:
  • Definition: FoRTE subplots, w = West, e = East. Represents the disturbance type nested in each plot.
  • Type: Nominal
  • Missing values: None specified
nestedSubplot
  • Label:
  • Definition: 4 1m^2 sampling plots within each FoRTE subplot
  • Type: Nominal
  • Missing values: None specified
Run
  • Label:
  • Definition: The repetition of the LICOR efflux value that was recorded. (Example: 3 means the recorded efflux value was the third repetition of CO2 sampling). Most of the samples were recorded on the 3rd and 4th run to allow system to stabilize.
  • Type: Nominal
  • Missing values: None specified
soilCO2Efflux
  • Label:
  • Definition: Soil CO2 flux measurement in umols CO2 *m^-2 *sec^-1. This represents the average flux of CO2 emitted from soil samples over the measurement period.
  • Type: Nominal
  • Missing values: None specified
soilTemp
  • Label:
  • Definition: In-situ soil temperature to 7cm depth during field soil collection
  • Type: Nominal
  • Missing values: None specified
VWC
  • Label:
  • Definition: In-situ Volumetric water content (%). Percent soil water content in the top 20cm measured during field soil collection.
  • Type: Nominal
  • Missing values: None specified
air_dry_sample_g
  • Label: Air Dried soil weight (g)
  • Definition: Air dried weight of soil used for incubation (g)
  • Type: Nominal
  • Missing values: None specified
oven_dry_test_g
  • Label: Oven dried weight of soil subsample
  • Definition: Oven dried weight of soil subsample (grams) to calculate a oven-dried: air-dried weight ratio and apply to total soil sample to calculate oven_dry_sample_g. Soil sub-samples were dried at 60 degrees celsius for 48 hours.
  • Type: Nominal
  • Missing values: None specified
air_dry_test_g
  • Label: aired dried weight of soil subsample
  • Definition: Air-dried weight of soil subsample (grams), measured before subsample was oven-dried.
  • Type: Nominal
  • Missing values: None specified
oven_air_ratio
  • Label:
  • Definition: The oven-dried : air-dried ratio of the soil subsamples as a proportion. This proportion was used to calculate the oven_dry_sample_g
  • Type: Nominal
  • Missing values: None specified
oven_dry_sample_g
  • Label:
  • Definition: Calculated oven-dried weight of total soil sample in grams estimated from oven-dried : air-dried ratios of the soil sub-samples.
  • Type: Nominal
  • Missing values: None specified
incubator_temp
  • Label:
  • Definition: The temperature (in degrees celsius) the incubator was set for each round of incubations. Temperature was determined from the average in-situ soil temperature during the day of collection (see soilTemp for details)
  • Type: Nominal
  • Missing values: None specified
date_collection
  • Label:
  • Definition: The date of in-situ soil collection and start of soil incubations
  • Type: Date/time
  • Date format: DD/MM/YY
  • Missing values: None specified
date_measured
  • Label:
  • Definition: The day CO2 efflux was measured from incubated soils.
  • Type: Date/time
  • Date format: DD/MM/YY
  • Missing values: None specified
year
  • Label:
  • Definition: The year of data collection and measurement
  • Type: Date/time
  • Date format: YYYY
  • Missing values: None specified
