Floridan Aquifer Collaborative Engagement for Sustainability (FACETS) - Field trial data from University of Georgia Stripling Irrigation Research Park (SIRP): ARDN Products

    ARDN (Agricultural Research Data Network) annotations for "Floridan Aquifer Collaborative Engagement for Sustainability (FACETS) - Field trial data from University of Georgia Stripling Irrigation Research Park (SIRP)". The ARDN project (https://data.nal.usda.gov/ardn) is a network of datasets harmonized and aggregated using the ICASA vocabulary, as recommended by USDA NAL (https://data.nal.usda.gov/data-dictionary-examples) and described in detail here: www.tinyurl.com/icasa-mvl”. The original dataset presents evaluations of different irrigation and fertilization treatments (corn and cotton have three nitrogen fertilization and three irrigation treatments, peanut has nine irrigation treatments and no N fertilizer treatment) at the University of Georgia’s Stripling Irrigation Research Park (SIRP) located near Camilla, Georgia in a 4 ha research field.

      SGP97 ARM Soil Texture Data Set

      NAL Geospatial Catalog
        The temporal coverage for this dataset is as follows: Begin datetime: 1995-10-01 00:00:00, End datetime: 2001-03-31 23:59:59. The Department of Energy (DOE) Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Southern Great Plains (SGP) Soil Texture Data Set is one of the various sub-surface data sets developed for the ARM/GCIP (Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment (GEWEX) Continental-scale International Project) 1996 Near-Surface Observation (NESOB-96) Data Set. This data set contains a summary table of the percentages of sand, silt, and clay fractions in each soil layer at each of the ARM SWATS (Soil Water and Temperature System) sites at the SGP site. Also included is the corresponding USDA texture class as determined from the "soil triangle". The soil characterizations were perfomed by Oklahoma State University.

            Data from: Feasibility of Infiltration Galleries for Managed Aquifer Recharge in the Mississippi River Valley Alluvial Aquifer of Northeast Arkansas

              The information in this dataset is from "Feasibility of Infiltration Galleries for Managed Aquifer Recharge in the Mississippi River Valley Alluvial Aquifer of Northeast Arkansas" by Godwin et al., 2020. Included in the dataset are the following raw data: Table of well log point; Raw geophysical data files; Soil sample textural analysis data; Soil sample chemical analysis data.

              Vegetation, rainfall simulation, and overland flow experiments before and after tree removal in woodland-encroached sagebrush steppe: the SageSTEP hydrology study

                Simulated rainfall and overland-flow experiments are useful for enhancing understanding of surface hydrologic and erosion processes, quantifying runoff and erosion rates, and developing and testing predictive quantitative models. This extensive dataset consists of rainfall simulation and overland flow experimental plot data coupled with associated measures of vegetation, ground cover, and surface soil properties across point to hillslope scales. Data were collected at three woodland-encroached sagebrush (*Artemisia* spp.) rangelands in the Great Basin, USA, under undisturbed/untreated conditions and 1 yr to 9 yr following fire and/or mechanical tree-removal treatments.

                Fragment Modifier Calculator

                  The Fragment Modifier Calculator is an Excel spreadsheet allowing the user to generate the textural fragment modifier based on percentages of fragments and parafragments. This calculator is from the [National Soil Survey Handbook Part 618, Subpart B, Exhibit 618.90](https://directives.sc.egov.usda.gov/OpenNonWebContent.aspx?content=29282.wba).

                  Soil Texture Calculator

                    The Soil Texture Calculator web tool allows the user to input sand and clay percentages to obtain the soil texture. An Excel version is also available for download.

                    LandPKS (Land Potential Knowledge System): Mobile App for Extension, Land-Use and Project Planning, M&E and On-Farm Research

                      **LandPKS** comprises a free modular mobile phone app connected to cloud-based storage, global databases, and models, downloadable from Google Play or the iTunes App Store; a system for storing and accessing user data; and a system for sharing data, information and knowledge. LandPKS is being developed to help users determine the sustainable potential of their land, including its restoration potential, based on its unique soil, topography and climate. The land potential assessments will be updated based on new evidence regarding the success or failure of new management and restoration systems on different soils.
