Benchmark site documentation : 05-AB (Provost, Alberta)

Description

The purpose of this report is to chronicle the baseline soil features of the Provost (05-AB) Benchmark Site, thereby providing a technical reference document in support of on-going monitoring research and reporting. The Provost site is one of 23 benchmark-monitoring sites established across Canada by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada to collect baseline data to monitor trends in soil quality. It represents the northern belt of Dark Brown soils that occur in the Prairie - Parkland Transition, also called Aspen Groveland. The landscape is representative of the relatively rough, hummocky to undulating, morainal terrain that is common through east-central Alberta and west-central Saskatchewan.
