Primary observations
Soil profiles & field data
Legacy laboratory and field records brought together in a new quality-controlled, format-standardised national soil profile database.
National collection
Namibian Soil Profile Database
The database integrates historical laboratory data, field descriptions and observations into a harmonised national resource, supported by metadata, notes and readme documentation.
Version noteThe current Zenodo record may be used now, but the database will be refined and future versions are expected to receive new DOIs. Authorship, licence and preferred citation remain to be confirmed.
