Summary
These soil map units were extracted from the STATSGO dataset for soils of the conterminous US to the extent of the pinyon-juniper woodland mortality datset (http://app.databasin.org/app/pages/datasetPage.jsp?id=71d55a65fc0244a68c627fdbcc887efa) . The MUSYMs were compared to STATSGO tables to determine soil series, associations and taxonomy. This information was along with the NRCS official soil series description website: http://ortho.ftw.nrcs.usda.gov/cgi-bin/osd/osdname.cgi to create the attribute tables showing series names, representative orders, textures, soil climates and diagnostic horizons present in each soil map unit.
