Black Carbon and related environmental data for fate and transport

We determined soil hydrology, soil carbon pools (organic carbon, black carbon, and inorganic carbon) from urban soil assessments (surface and sub-surface horizons) carried out in the core areas of eleven cities in the United States. We used both ordinary least squares and non-parametric CART methods to discern trends in BC concentrations with regard to soil, landscape, and emission metrics.

This dataset is associated with the following publication: Schifman, L., A. Prues, K. Gilkey, and W. Shuster. Realizing the Opportunities of Black carbon in Urban Soils: Implications for Water Quality Management with Green Infrastructure. SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT.
