Analysis of soil samples collected over Huay Ma Nai catchment in Northern Thailand in 2017

This dataset has been collected thanks to the long-term partnership with National Park, Wildlife and Plant Conservation Department (DNP), Thailand, which granted the permission for field access, and to the financial, scientific, technical, and/or logistical support of the Multiscale TROPIcal CatchmentS (SNO M-TROPICS; mtropics.obs-mip.fr/) critical zone observatory (previously MSEC). The soil samples were taken under different vegetation covers at the long-term observatory catchment Huay Ma Nai in northern Thailand in 2017.

This dataset holds some chemical and physical soils properties. Dry combustion analysis (CHN) was used to assess Carbon (C) and Nitrogen (N) concentrations. Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was used to measure the signature of the samples in the medium infrared region.
