VSC lignin monomers, and hydrolysable neutral sugars in soils of Mount Kilimanjaro
Listed in Hamburger Zentrum für Sprachkorpora Korpus Repositorium
This dataset includes data from soil organo-chemical analyses conducted on the southwestern slope of Mount Kilimanjaro (3°4’33’’S; 37°21’12 E).
Description
Soil samples from seven research plots from 951 to 4190 m a.s.l.: A colline savanna (SAV), located below 1000 m a.s.l; grassland (GRA), located on the lower montane zone (1660 m a.s.l.); lower montane forest (FLM) at 1920 m a.s.l., dominated by Macaranga kilimandscharica, Agauria salicifolia; forest dominated by Ocotea usambarensis and Cyathea manniana (FOC) at 2120 m a.s.l.; podocarpus latifolius , Prunus Africana and Hagenia abyssinica dominated forest (FPO) at 2850 m a.s.l.; sub-alpine erica forest (FER) at 4000 m a.s.l.; alpine Helichrysum cussion vegetation (HEL) at 4200 m a.s.l.
Soil Samples 7 elevation zones (951 - 4190 m a.s.l.) 3 independent field replicates per elevation zone Sampling depth: 0-10 cm

Methods
Lignin phenols: alkaline cupric oxide oxidation (Hedges and Ertel, 1982)) Non-cellulosic neutral sugar concentration was analyzed by gas chromatography (Banfield et al. 2018, Prietzel et al., 2013). Data structure The dataset presents processed data as mean values of laboratory duplicates Sugars: rhamnose, fucose, ribose, arabinose, xylose, mannose, galactose, glucose [mg*g -1 soil ] Sum of sugars per total organic carbon [%] Ligning monomers: p-hydroxybenzaldehyde, p-hydroxyacetophenone, vanillin, acetovanillon, p-hydroxybenzoic-acid, syringaldehyde, vanillic-acid, acetosyringon, syringic-acid, p-coumaric-acid, ferulic-acid, vanillyl+syringyl+cinnamyl (VSC) [mg*g -1 soil ] Acid-to-aldehyde ratios of vanillyl (Ac-Al-V) and syringyl (Ac-Al-S) [mg*mg -1 ] VSC per total organic carbon [%] Reference: Becker, J.N., Dippold, M.A., Ndossi, E.M., Kuzyakov, Y., Razavi, B.S., Spielvogel, S., 2025.
