TY - T1 - Variation in soil nutrient concentrations and bulk density within peatland forest sites SN - / UR - http://hdl.handle.net/1975/425 T3 - A1 - Laiho, Raija; Penttilä, Timo; Laine, Jukka A2 - PB - Y1 - 2004 LA - en AB - The within-site variability of soil characteristics on sites with different soil types remains poorly quantified, although this information is crucial for the success of research on soil properties, and especially for monitoring soil properties over time. We used coefficients of variation and multilevel variance component models to examine the within-site variation of soil (0-30 cm) mineral nutrient concentrations (P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, mg g-1; Mn, Zn, μg g-1) and bulk density (kg m-3) on boreal dee...
