Summary

This second volume in the Long-Term Ecological Research Network Seriesprovides a standardized set of protocols for measuring soil properties. Its goalis to facilitate cross-site synthesis and evaluation of ecosystem processes. Itis the first broadly based compendium of methods and will be an invaluableresource for ecologists, agronomists, and soil scientists.
