Version 1.4.0 Contents
This database contains tidal wetland soil carbon profiles and associated metadata. The data itself is housed in separate comma separated value (.csv) spreadsheets linked by common identifier attributes (study_id, site_id, and core_id).
Data Tables
CCN_methods.csv - Contains information on materials and methods broken down by study
CCN_sites.csv - Contains positional and descriptive information of the coring sites.

CCN_depthseries.csv - Contains raw depth-series information for all cores.
CCN_species.csv - Contains information on the dominant plant species at coring locations.
CCN_impacts.csv - Contains information on the anthropogenic impacts at site or coring locations.
Metadata Tables
CCN_database_structure.html - Is a simplified, visual and interactive version of metadata.xml for display purposes.
