A monitoring program was initiated in 2002 at five protected forest sites in Vermont, three in Mt. Mansfield State Forest and two in the Lye Brook Wilderness Area. Every 5 years at each site, ten soil pits are dug and sampled from subplots in a 50 × 50-m plot.Vermont Long-term Soil Monitoring DatabaseA database of all data collected as part of the Vermont Long-term Soils Monitoring program, including visit information, vegetation, soil descriptions and soil chemistry.
