Nitrogen leaching experiment using resin bags across land uses on Mount Kilimanjaro

This dataset contains the leaching data from the resin bags experiment conducted in Kilimanjaro during the rain season in 2023. About eight resin bags were installed at 30 cm depth in each plot before rain season in March and after the rain season in August to September, the resin bags were uninstalled, and ammonia and nitrate were measured using standard methods.
