AbstractOne of the LTER sites is in southern New Mexico on the Jornada Experimental Range. This paper describes the soil survey that was done for the study area. A soil survey was begun in the summer of 1983 to provide information for the assessment of the correlation between soil variation and the numerous biotic or soil moisture parameters along the transect. The survey objective was to prepare soil information that could be used to assess research in progress in the study area.
