Radiocarbon dating of soil organic matter fractions along grassland-to-forest conversion chronosequences across Scotland

https://doi.org/10.5285/0dd45f6f-0536-4ee3-9932-58bac019d2c6 Cite this dataset

The dataset contains the radiocarbon age of soil organic matter fractions collected along grassland-to-forest conversion chronosequences across Scotland. Soil samples were collected in summer 2018.

In summer 2019, soil samples were fractionated and the radiocarbon age of bulk soil and soil fraction samples determined by accelerator mass spectrometry.
