    Bacterial distribution in soil microhabitats at different spatial scales
    (Cranfield University, 2018-08-08 16:11) Otten, Wilfred; Eickhorst, Thilo; Juyal, Archana; Falconer, Ruth; Hapca, Simona; Schmidt, Hannes; C Baveye, Philippe
    The data underpin the results described in the Geoderma paper by Juyal et al (2018) https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geoderma.2018.07.031 entitled 'Combination of techniques to quantify the distribution of bacteria in their soil microhabitats at different spatial scales'. The data are represented in an Excel file and show counts of bacteria in individual sections of soil blocks and their corresponding pore geometry as determined by Xray CT at three different spatial scales. The data underpin the summary data described in the paper where a detailed method description is also provided.

    Data for spread of bacteria in soil
    (Cranfield University, 2020-04-20 14:34) Otten, Wilfred; Eickhorst, Thilo; Juyal, Archana; C Baveye, Philippe
    Data set related to the paper 'Influence of soil structure on the spread of Pseudomonas fluorescens in soil at microscale' the objective of the study was to determine the influence of soil pore characteristics on the spread of bacteria in soil. Bacteria were introduced and locally and allowed to spread through soil. Soil was resin impregnated and the location of bacteria was observed in thin sections. X-ray CT was used to determine the physical characteristics of the pore space. The data set contains the raw data published in the accompanying paper. Treatment refers to the bulk density of the soil and 2 thin sections were counted for each sample. at each micro-site in soil pore characteristics are given in the table and the number of bacterial cells found in that section through observation and counting under the microscope. Counts are converted to cell densities. The data relate to the spread of bacteria and further analysis of the data is described in the paper
