Pilot experiment: tree sapling biomass allocation to strata

Abstract:
Questions: One tenet of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning research is the dependence of ecosystem functions on species-specific differences in traits. Community assembly theory predicts niche differentiation among the constituent species, for...

CSP total tree basal area without the snowbreak trees

Abstract:
The BEF-China forest experiment studies the role of tree diversity in ecosystem functioning in subtropical forests. This data includes aggregated Basal area by Comparative Study Plots (CSP) in the Gutianshan National Nature Reserve. Basal area is ...

CSP successional age estimates based on stem diameter distribution and tree ring width

Abstract:
Comparative Study Plots of the BEF-China experiment were selected according to a gradient of successional age and a crossed gradient of tree diversity. This file describes measures of stem diameter distribution from the CSPs, as well as basal area...

Pilot experiment: tree sapling 15N recovery in leaves and fine roots

Abstract:
"1. Afforestations are globally increasing to produce timber and pulp wood, and to enhance carbon sequestration aiming at the mitigation of CO2 emissions. Large areas have been and will be afforested, particularly in China, in order to compensate ...
