Description

Deionized water extraction of sediments following Gregorich and Carter (2007) to measure dissolved nutrients and organic carbon. Designed to minimize physical disruption and reflect carbon and nutrient pools available to microbial and root systems.

  • polyethylene bags
  • Whatman GF/F filters (0.7 μm)
  • Thermo Scientific GENESYS 105 UV-VIS Spectrophotometer
  • Apollo 9000 combustion TOC analyzer

Output Measurements

  • total dissolved nitrogen
  • nitrate
  • soluble reactive phosphorus
  • total dissolved phosphorus
  • dissolved organic carbon
