Lithosequence in Mountainair, NM

Matthew Milligan, an undergraduate researcher, and I are currently
analyzing soil properties of a soil lithosequence located in central New
Mexico. Three minor ridges are located within a few miles of each
other, each containing a very different parent material. We are
currently working to evaluate the influence of the very different
particle size distribution in these soils on carbon concentration.
