Title:Textural soil data, Colombia, 0 - 100 cm
Alternate Identifier:DOI PLACE HOLDER
Abstract:
The textural soil data is a harmonized and structured data set with information related to soil particle-size fractions (PSF) such as clay, sand, and silt, as transformed data. The transformed data was obtained through additive log-ratio transformation because the PSF are compositional data. The textural soil data was fitted to five standard depths using the quadratic function with equal areas (spline). Standard depths were: 0 - 5 cm, 5 - 15 cm, 15 - 30 cm, 30 - 60 cm, and 60 - 100 cm. The original data was obtained from Sistema de Información de Suelos de Latinoamérica y el Caribe - SISLAC, a soil information system developed by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.

Description:
The original data were obtained from Sistema de Información de Suelos de Latinoamérica y el Caribe - SISLAC, a soil information system developed by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. SISLAC URL is: http://54.229.242.119/sislac/es. The vertical discretization (standard depths) was generated following the methodology described by Bishop et al. (1999).

Abstract: <para>Colombia signed the National Soil Partnership in 2019. That partnership is conformed by different national institutions: Ministry of the Environment Colombia, Instituto de Hidrología, Meteorología y Estudios Ambientales (IDEAM), Unidad de Planificación Rural Agropecuaria (UPRA), Soil Science Society of Colombia, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), and the Colombian Corporation for Agricultural Research (AGROSAVIA). Following the guidelines from the Global Soil Partnership, it has five pillars of action: Soil management, awareness raising, research, information and data, and harmonization. As part of the fourth pillar, AGROSAVIA joined to the IGAC, have generated different kind of data and information, such as salinity or potential carbon sequestration. On this opportunity AGROSAVIA has wanted to generate new data and information related to particle size fractions.</para>

Description:The frequency or update of the data is related with the update of the system soil information SISLAC, because the source of the data has been that iniciative. However, in the SISLAC has not included the last surveys soils developed by the IGAC from 2015 until nowadays. Therefore, if SISLAC updates the data, we will update the textural soil data at different depths.
