The experimental design of this work included sampling three sites located in uncontaminated areas, within the vicinity of the Macquarie Island research station. One transect (length: 50 m) was located per site; each transect spanned a soil carbon gradient, from sandy to peaty soil types. Each 50 m transect included 10 plots (plot size 1 m2). Seven pairs of soil cores were collected from each plot. Soil core dimensions were 70 mm diameter x 70 mm deep. Soil core pairs were spiked with Special Antarctic Blend (SAB) diesel; one unspiked control and six spiked concentrations per plot. After spiking, cores were incubated under field-realistic conditions for 15 days. After incubation, one core per pair was used for invertebrate extraction, the other was used for soil physicochemical analysis. Percentage cover of plant species and bare ground were surveyed for each plot. The data provided with this record include details of soil core fuel spike, springtail species counts, soil physicochemical properties and vegetation cover within plots.

Brief description

This data record describes work conducted by Thomas Mooney on Macquarie Island during the 2008/09 and 2009/10 field seasons.

The experimental design of this work included sampling three sites located in uncontaminated areas, within the vicinity of the Macquarie Island research station. One transect (length: 50 m) was located per site; each transect spanned a soil carbon gradient, from sandy to peaty soil types. Each 50 m transect included 10 plots (plot size 1 m2). Seven pairs of soil cores were collected from each plot. Soil core dimensions were 70 mm diameter x 70 mm deep. Soil core pairs were spiked with Special Antarctic Blend (SAB) diesel; one unspiked control and six spiked concentrations per plot. After spiking, cores were incubated under field-realistic conditions for 15 days.
