1 Key to data headings for SOIL data from Rio Grande Basin Initiative Survey of Leasburg Canal System The following data sets are the complete databases of canal and soil characteristics and vegetation sampled from 252 sites along the Leasburg system of the Elephant Butte Irrigation District between 2002 and 2006 during the peak of the irrigation season (Jill Schroeder Leigh Murray April Ulery Cheryl Fiore Hien Nguyen, Xiaoli Liu Identification and Detection of Problem and Noxious Weeds on Irrigation Canals will Lead to Effective Weed Management Programs and Increase Water for Irrigation: Survey of the Vegetation and Soils of the Leasburg Canal System ). Key to data headings Soil data Headings Sample site number (1 297) The name of each lateral or canal (assigned by EBID) Location measurement from the equator running north and south; positive values run from the equator north and negative values from the equator south. Location measurement from the Prime Meridian (the longitude that runs through Greenwich, England); positive values run east and negative values run west Length of lateral or canal in miles Recommended capacity refers to the volume of water that can flow through a canal, determined by the size of the canal/lateral Degree of canal bank slope (i.e. steepness of slope) Meters measured from bottom of the canal to the top of the canal bank Meters measured from the bottom of the canal to the top of the water A visual field observation considering the bank angle, vegetation type and % ground cover. S = same or similar as the data collection site; D = different The negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration of a soil measured by combination electrode placed directly into the saturated paste Electrical conductivity is the capacity of the soil to conduct or transmit electrical current related to dissolved solutes and is measured in the extract * Ration (SAR) A measure of the amount of sodium in the saturated soil paste extract relative to the amount of calcium and magnesium Na (%ESP) sodium percentage is calculated from the SAR and is a measure of the extent to which the adsorption complex of a soil is occupied by sodium* The decomposed plant or animal material in soil, humus.* NO3 N 1:5 (soil water ) extract Nitrogen as Nitrate, an inorganic compound extracted with water from the soil. NaHCO3 Phosphorus extracted with sodium bicarbonate for alkaline soils K 1:5 Extract Potassium extracted with water from soil A multi-step technique used to classify untreated soil into various texture classes. Some of the sampling site data were deleted for the original statistical analyses which are summarized in AES Report. The sites and reasons for deletion for the original statistical analyses are listed as follows: 1. Deleted 5 samples sites (sample numbers 76, 87, 90, 91, 214) where a. No vegetation was present b. Vegetation was dead c. Vegetation was mowed d. Other or pecan 2. A further 11 sampled locations were deleted because soil analyses contained unreasonable or suspicious values (sample numbers 104, 107, 112, 123, 126, 170, 174, 181, 260, 281, 283) A few of the data characteristics could not be obtained due to conditions at the time of sampling. Usable files can be obtained by contacting one of the authors and by making appropriate reference to the source of the information.
