Description

In January 2004, Alberta Environment contracted Timberline Forest Inventory Consultants to conduct data analysis and basic data interpretation of a dataset containing soil chemical analysis data. These data have been collected at regular intervals at eight sites (six coniferous forest sites and two grassland sites, mostly on coarse-textured soils) across the province since 1981 in support of the Long Term Soil Acidity Monitoring program. The main body of this report outlines the steps that were taken with respect to data preparation, software and procedures used, and assumptions made in handling the data. This report also makes comments on possible data limitations and provides some recommendations related to improving ongoing sampling and analysis.
