<b>Soil, crop, and weed communities as affected by soil erosion and topsoil replacement in a Mollisol landform (a six-year soil-landscape rehabilitation study)</b>
These data provide field measurements at two geographical sites of plant and soil as affected by (a) tillage and water erosion and (b) replacement of translocated topsoil through soil-landscape rehabilitation. Data include pre-restoration soil properties, a digital elevation model, and tillage and water erosion estimates. Data reported after restoration include annual assessments of crop emergence, biomass and grain yield; soil physical, chemical, and biological properties; weed communities; and weather information. The Stevens County, Minnesota site was a heavily eroded site while the Roberts County, South Dakota site was moderately eroded. The data can be used to develop agronomic best management practices to improve crop production and to protect environmental and soil health. The data also could contribute to meta-analyses describing effects of erosion and soil-landscape rehabilitation (translocating soil from areas of net deposition to areas of net soil loss by erosion) on crop performance and changes in soil properties.
