This dataset lists soil profile observations described in the rangeland sites across Australia by the TERN Surveillance Monitoring team, using standardised AusPlots methodologies. Soil profile characteristics are observed and collected at each site as part of the AusPlots Soil and Landscapes methods. For each soil profile sampled, soil horizon's colour, electrical conductivity, effervescence, soil ped characteristics, soil pH, texture and coarse fragments characteristics are described as part of the AusPlots Soil characterisation to 1 m+ method. Soil specimens for the soil horizons are also collected for preservation.
