The functional diversity of microbial assemblages
was measured from soil collected from four campsites
and adjacent undisturbed areas in October 1994, at the
end of the growing season. One soil core, 2.2 cm in
diameter and to the depth of impenetrable soil (ca.
18 cm), was extracted from the core area of each of the
four campsites (sites 1, 3, 5, and 7) and undisturbed
areas adjacent to the campsites (sites 2, 4, 6, and 8).
Cores were divided into an upper and a lower layer,
based on two distinctly colored horizons: dark brown
upper layer (A horizon) and yellow–brown lower layer
(Bw horizon). The average thickness of the upper layer
was 6 cm and of the lower layer was 11.3 cm. Samples
were aseptically collected and placed in sterile plastic
bags on ice.
