Abstract

The data presented here are related to the research paper entitled "Spectral characteristics of soil dissolved organic matter: long-term effects of exogenous organic matter on soil organic matter and spatial-temporal changes" (Musadji et al., 2020). Fluorescence Excitation-Emission Matrixes and DOC content of 39 suction cup soil solutions are given for a control and an urban green waste compost amended soil sampled in spring and autumn. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used to identify possible spatial-temporal trends and to emphasize the long term effect of organic amendment on soil organic matter quality.

Keywords: DOC content; DOM; Fluorescence excitation-emission matrixes; Urban green waste compost.
