Phase II Sampling at the Yoast Study Area,
Routt County, Colorado
March, 1990

Parameter-Units Procedure-Reference
Sample preparation
Subsampling less than 2 mm fraction
Preparation of saturation extract
and saturation percentage determination
pH (determination using saturated
paste)
Conductivity of saturation extract
i n mmhos/cm at 25°C
Nitrate-Nitrogen in the saturation
extract in ppm
Hot water soluble boron in ppm
Particle size analysis in ~ sand,
silt and clay
Textural classification
Total sulfur in 4
Sulfur fractionation in 4

Samples will be dried at less than 35°C and
crushed to pass a 10 mesh sieve (excessive
grinding will be avoided).
