UBC Research Data

UBC Farm Soil Lab Results Centre for Sustainable Food Systems at UBC Farm

Description

This dataset contains results of laboratory analyses of UBC Farm soils starting in August 1999. Soil samples are predominantly collected annually by students in the Sustainable Soil Management course at UBC (APBI 402 / SOIL 502) and analyzed by Pacific Soils Analysis Inc (PSAI). The course instructors work with UBC Farm staff to determine which fields should be sampled each year, and the results inform management decisions at the Farm. Some samples have been collected through various other research and teaching activities, as well as by UBC Farm staff, and some samples have been analyzed by other laboratories. Methods information for each variable and laboratory will be provided in the metadata file.
