CCN Data Library 1.2.0
Synthesis Version 1.2.0
Version 1.2.0 Contents
This database contains tidal wetland soil carbon profiles and associated metadata. The data itself is housed in separate comma separated value (.csv) spreadsheets linked by common identifier attributes (study_id, site_id, and core_id).
Data Tables
- CCN_methods.csv - Contains information on materials and methods broken down by study
- CCN_sites.csv - Contains positional and descriptive information of the coring sites.
- CCN_cores.csv - Contains positional and descriptive information on core locations.
- CCN_depthseries.csv - Contains raw depth-series information for all cores.
- CCN_species.csv - Contains information on the dominant plant species at coring locations.
- CCN_impacts.csv - Contains information on the anthropogenic impacts at site or coring locations.
Metadata Tables
- CCN_database_structure.html - Is a simplified, visual and interactive version of metadata.xml for display purposes.
- CCN_study_citations.csv - Contains bibliographic information for publications and associated sources, which can be related to the database tables via study_id.
- CCN_bibliography.bib - Contains bibliographic information for publications and sources associated with this database.

Corrections and Additions to previously synthesized datasets 1.2.0
- Belshe et al 2019: Updated core position and position_notes for core_id = "SM10" in _cores.csv. Updated and reformatted depthseries table to reflect V1.2.0 structure.
- Breithaupt et al 2014: Removed 'date' attribute from depthseries table. This value is represented in 'age' and 'age_se'.
- Bukoski et al 2017: Corrected latitude and longitude values.
- Callaway et al 2019: Removed 'pb210_background_assumption' attribute from methods table. Value recoded in 'dating_notes'. Resolved duplicate core_ids.
- Cifuentes et al 2023 (Panama): Resolved encoding issue with site names.
- Eagle et al 2021: Resolved accent encoding issue.
- Everhart et al 2020: Removed the following uncontrolled attributes from depthseries table: th234_activity, th234_activity_se, k40_activity, k40_activity_se.
- Fourqurean et al 2012: Added site-level position data in _cores.csv.
- Holmquist et al 2018: Removed Drake et al 2015 and Radaubaugh et al 2018 data contained in synthesis, now represented in Drake et al 2024 and Radaugbaugh et al 2018. Added 'site_id' to _impacts.csv and _species.csv.
- Howard and Fourqurean 2020: Resolved duplicate core_ids.
- Osland et al 2016: Added habitat informations in _cores.csv.
