Annual Decay Rates - Prince Edward Island

Annual Decay Rates - Prince Edward Island Annual decay rates in soil humus are monitored in 12 permanent forest plots within PEI National Park using year-to-year dry weight losses of standardized wood pieces (tongue depressors) as a proxy for soil decomposition. Climate change, pollution, dominant vegetation and land-use can all have profound influences on forest soil decomposition. 2024-04-18 Parks Canada Paul.giroux@canada.ca Nature and EnvironmentPEI National Parksoilforestdecomposition rate Annual Decay Rates - Prince Edward IslandCSV https://open.canada.ca/data/dataset/43675fb6-6510-4d90-80d0-71f7e96b9604/resource/0c1cc3d1-29c8-46d9-b881-990ace1a6e8f/download/pei_np_forest_annual-decay_rate_2007-2018_data.csv Annual Decay Rates - Prince Edward Island - Data DictionaryCSV https://open.canada.ca/data/dataset/43675fb6-6510-4d90-80d0-71f7e96b9604/resource/689c67bf-e3dc-4445-8507-0cf17d3aed38/download/pei_np_forest_annual_decay_rates_data_dictionary.csv
