BiedermanPrairieBiocharData

These data are associated with the paper "Biochar and manure alter few aspects of prairie development: a field test" published in Agriculture, Ecosystems & Environment. The data are in four sheets: BiocharPrairieBiocharMetadata, which provides a description and units of the variables in the other sheets; BiedermanPrairieBiocharData, which contains most of the data associated with the project; BiedermanPrairieBiocharMVplfa, which contains data associated with the multivariate analysis of the PLFA community in years 1, 2, and 3; and BiedermanPrairieBiocharMVplant, which contains data associated with the multivariate analysis of the plant community in years 1, 2, 3, and 5. This data package also contains the Supplementary Table 1 from the manuscript and a photo of the plots with biochar applied but not roto-tilled in.
