This digital document is a born-digital PDF containing details of forest floor sample collection & handling for the EP 660 Buckhorn Ridge installation.
This 3.5" floppy contains the following EP 1148 .TXT data sets from 1995-1997:
EP 660 was a conventional silvicultural trial established in 1967 which involved single species plantings of lodgepole pine (Pl), white spruce (Sw), and Douglas-fir (Fd) at different spacings. Three installations were established in the Prince George - Vanderhoof area: Buckhorn Ridge, Bobtail Road, and Chilco Creek.
General details on EP 660 are given by:

This document is an unpublished 1995 UNBC co-op work term report by B. Roosdahl entitled "Forest Floor Development on Bladed Trails in the SBS: A retrospective study of the Archie Creek site". B. Roosdahl was a co-op student who was one of the student research assistants involved in the field work at the Archie Creek site in fall 1995.

Forest soil sulphur research was a continuing interest for Dr. Paul Sanborn for more than 30 years, beginning at UBC in the mid-1980s when he took a graduate course in Forest Soils from Dr. Tim Ballard. Among the things that he learned was that soils in much of BC were deficient in sulphur (S). Simultaneously, he became aware of the large amount of research on prescribed fire in BC forests, with broadcast burning being the main method of site preparation across much of the province at that time.
Sanborn undertook various projects in this area of research:
In July 2009, Dr. Paul Sanborn undertook the first soils field research at the Fort Selkirk volcanic field in central Yukon, with helicopter support and funding from the Yukon Geological Survey. This file includes digital photographs of the 2009 field work at the Ft. Selkirk site. Some of the digital photographs have been annotated as PDFs.
In July 2009, Dr. Paul Sanborn undertook the first soils field research at the Fort Selkirk volcanic field in central Yukon, with helicopter support and funding from the Yukon Geological Survey. This file includes the following data sets gathered from the research:
For July 1-7, 2009, Dr. Paul Sanborn did the first soils field research at the Fort Selkirk volcanic field in central Yukon, with helicopter support and funding from the Yukon Geological Survey.
Initial findings were published in the 2009 edition of Yukon Exploration and Geology, but this paper did not include most of the laboratory data:

Unpublished results for the Sulphur stable isotope tracer study (E.P. 886.15) were presented in annual reports to the funding agencies, including this FRBC 2001 Preliminary Final Report from April 2002.

This image is part of the return trip sequence of aerial images obtained on the helicopter flight leaving the Klutlan Glacier study site. On the return leg at the end of the day, the flight initially went upvalley to pick up another party. This image was taken after the helicopter turned north to return to base camp.
