Archie Creek Site
2023.2.2.10.2 · Sub-subseries · 1993-2001
Part of Dr. Paul Sanborn fonds

The Archie Creek site is the informal name used for a research installation established in 1971 east of Prince George by the Canadian Forest Service, and subsequently abandoned by the end of that decade. Dr. Paul Sanborn revisited the site in 1995, and sampled forest floors and mineral soils across a range of conifer-broadleaf mixtures established by natural establishment of broadleaf trees among planted lodgepole pines.

Details of the site conditions, sampling methods, and results were published in:
Sanborn, P. 2001. Influence of broadleaf trees on soil chemical properties: A retrospective study in the Sub-Boreal Spruce Zone, British Columbia, Canada. Plant and Soil 236: 75–82. https://doi.org/10.1023/A:1011973402414
