Description
Soil samples were collected from the native tallgrass area on the JCCC campus that is designated as the “Prairie Restoration” area and from the nearby lawn. These samples were tested for total organic carbon using the Walkley-Black method of analysis with an acid digestion followed by a titration. Additional tests were also performed. A comparison of the test results for both locations will be discussed.
