Soil characteristics																			
remarks:	Data from T. Persson (2000a); method:  T Persson et al (2000)																		
	Sampling date 2 October 1997; number of samplings is 4. CEC and BS are determined from NH4OAc extractions at pH=7																		
	Al is extracted with 1M KCl and assumed to be Al3+
