The current emphasis on climate change has recognized the importance of including soil carbon as part of our carbon budgets. Methods to assess soils must be ecosystem based if they are to have utility for policy makers and managers wanting to change soil carbon and nutrient pools. Most of the texts on soil analysis treat agriculture and not forest soils and these methods do not transfer readily to forests because of their different chemistry and physical properties. This manual presents methods for soil and plant analysis with the ecosystem level approach that will reduce the risk that poor management decisions will be made in forests. This manual was intended for the instructors that teach students soil and plant analyses; however it can also be used by the research laboratories and by environmental scientists. The laboratory procedures in this manual are outlined in easy-to-follow steps and frequently accompanied with examples of calculations, questions to answer, and also a blank data sheet to use. These methods used in this manual can be used on soil and plant tissues found in agricultural, horticulture, forestry, urban, and natural lands. 410 0$aEcosystem science and applications. 606 $aForest ecology 606 $aForest type groups 606 $aForest plants 606 $aForest soils 606 $aSoils$xOrganic compound content 606 $aPlant communities 610 $aEnvironmental Science. 610 $aLaboratory Manual. 610 $aPlant Tissue Analysis. 610 $aSoil Analysis. 610 $aSoil Chemistry. 610 $aSoil Microbiology. 615 0$aForest ecology. 615 0$aForest type groups. 615 0$aForest plants. 615 0$aForest soils. 615 0$aSoils$xOrganic compound content. 615 0$aPlant communities. 676 $a577.3 686 $aZC 14500$2rvk 700 $aVogt$b Daniel$f1945-$01537686 702 $aTilley$b Joel P. 702 $aEdmonds$b Robert L. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788812203321 996 $aSoil and plant analysis for forest ecosystem characterization$93787127 997 $aUNINA
