Aboveground Primary Productivity of Tallgrass Prairie Based on Accumulated Plant Biomass on LTER Watersheds Burned at Different Seasons

General Information
Data Package:
Local Identifier:knb-lter-knz.76.7
Title:Aboveground Primary Productivity of Tallgrass Prairie Based on Accumulated Plant Biomass on LTER Watersheds Burned at Different Seasons
Alternate Identifier:PAB03
Abstract:

Data set contains estimates of standing crop biomass (grams per square meter) of live graminoids, forbs, woody plants, and previous year's dead vegetation for 2 soil types (shallow and deep) and seasonal burning treatments (spring, summer, fall, winter).
