Field,Definition
age,age in years since the restoration project was installed
site ,"name of site, using a code to afford privacy to the landowners"
landform,Channel = landform in stream bed extending from bankfull to the water's edge at the time of sampling; Floodplain = the first terrace(s) above the active channel that are frequently or infrequently flooded; Upper bank = the stream terrace above the hydrologic floodplain
stem #,an integer denoting individual stems within a single sample plot
siteplot,"field is a combination of site and landform; each site has three landforms (C, F, and U)"
uniquestem,field is a combination of siteplot and stem number; used to distinguish unique tree or shrub measurements from all others
habit,shrub or tree; only woody species are included in carbon estimates
species,a four-letter code; see list below
dbh_cm,diameter at breast height in cm
abg_kg,"aboveground biomass of the individual tree or shrub, in kg; uses allometric equations from Jenkins et al. 2003 except for semi-woody shrubs (see paper)"
ABG_tonsC,aboveground carbon in tons per ha
BLG_tonsC,belowground carbon in tons per ha
total_tonsC,sum of above- and below-ground carbon in tons per ha
StatusCd,"Success=attempted and successful at restoring woody vegetation,  Failure = attempted but failed at restorating woody vegetation, Unrestored = restoration not attempted"
Condition,"Restored = successful restoration (Success from StatusCd), Unrestored = StatusCd Failure or Unrestored"
wtBD,"soil bulk density to 50 cm depth, weighted by soil profile"
%C,percent soil carbon in 50 cm depth (equivalent soil mass basis)
%N,percent soil nitrogen in 50 cm depth (equivalent soil mass basis)
C:N,ratio of %C to %N
FA:HA,ratio of fulvic to humic acids in top 50 cm of soil
total C_kgm2,total soil carbon stocks to 50 cm depth (equivalent soil mass basic) in kg per m2
total N_kgm2,total soil nitrogen stocks to 50 cm depth (equivalent soil mass basic) in kg per m2
total labile C_kgm2,total labile soil carbon stocks to 50 cm depth (equivalent soil mass basic) in kg per m2
fraction_labile C,portion of total C_kgm2 that is total labile C_kgm2
