The National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) has excess air-dried soil from our Puerto Rico sites (Guanica Forest<http://www.neonscience.org/field-sites/field-sites-map/GUAN> and Lajas Experiment Station<http://www.neonscience.org/field-sites/field-sites-map/LAJA>) collected in 2017 pre and post hurricane. While the sites did not undergo massive hurricane damage, they still received large amounts of rainfall and the forest site lost a number of trees. If anyone is interested in obtaining these soils for research purposes and has a USDA permit to receive them, please fill out the form on this page<http://www.neonscience.org/request-excess-soil-samples> (description of intended research can be brief) and we will contact you. Cheers.
