Figure 2

Non-metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) ordination of the relative abundance of chemistry compounds at 18 months for substrate and clay treatments. Open symbols are kaolinite and closed symbols are montmorillonite. For comparison, unprocessed substrates (Time 0) and an agricultural field soil are indicated by a star symbol (Stress=8.1, Monte Carlo: P<0.05).
