Summary

Abstract: in order to gain a better understanding of the impacts of varied land
management on soil carbon and nitrogen storage in southern Wisconsin,
scientists at SAGE have initiated a long-term campaign of soil sampling and
monitoring. In 1999, they began collecting soil carbon, nitrogen, bulk density
and other assorted data on land-use history for agricultural land across south
central Wisconsin. Since ...
