Summary:

This data set was gridded from vector layers of soil maps that were received from Dr. Hugo Veldhuis, who did the original mapping in the field during 1994. The vector layers were gridded into raster files that cover the NSA-MSA and tower sites.

A guide document which includes more information about this data set can be found at http://daac.ornl.gov/boreas/TE/soilt20r/comp/TE20_NSA_Soils_Raster.txt.

ORNL DAAC maintains information on the entire BOREAS Project.
