Ag Data Commons migration begins October 18, 2023

The Ag Data Commons is migrating to a new platform – an institutional portal on Figshare. Starting October 18 the current system will be available for search and download only. Submissions will resume after the launch of our portal on Figshare in November. Stay tuned for details!

SGP97 Sub-Surface: PSU Soil Properties Data (Hydraulic)

NAL Geospatial Catalog
    The temporal coverage for this dataset is as follows: Begin datetime: 1997-06-01 00:00:00, End datetime: 1997-07-31 23:59:59. This data set was developed by the EOS IDS Team at Penn State for the Southern Great Plains 1997 (SGP-97) project. The following data coverages are available: DEM, Landcover and Landuse, Gauge Stations, Available Water Capacity, Bulk Density, Depth to Bedrock, Hydrologic Soils Group, Mapunits, Percent Water, Porosity, Rock Fragment Class, Rock Volume, Soil Fractions, and Surface Soil Texture.

      SGP97 Sub-Surface: PSU Soil Properties Data (Bulk Density)

      NAL Geospatial Catalog
        The temporal coverage for this dataset is as follows: Begin datetime: 1997-06-01 00:00:00, End datetime: 1997-07-31 23:59:59. Using the volume extracted and the dry weight of the soil extracted, the bulk density was computed; the results obtained from sampling the soil surface layer (0-5 cm) bulk density are provided, and files are all ASCII text.
