Different to our proposal we decided not to have 2 runoff plots (1 m² in size each) but 5 Mini-ROPs (40 cm x 40 cm, 0.16 m² each) per VIP. We spread them randomly over the left (vertical rows 1-4, horizontal rows 5-20) and lower (v rows 1-15, h ...

Shrub maps site B: maps based on planned and current status.

Updated 2011-11-14: Different diversity measures, including richness, Shannon, Simpson, Eveness, rarefaction and phylogenetic diversity based on the tree and shrub species in the CSPs. Comparative Study Plots (CSP) of the Biodiversity - Ecosystem...

For the “decomposcape” approach, a total of 4131 litter bags were filled with single-species litter of Osmanthus fragrans, Pinus massoniana and Schima superba, respectively. These bags have been fixed on the soil surface across both field sites. T...

Leaf level herbivory of the four central individuals of the pilot experiment. The idea is to see if there are plant diversity effects on the level of damage experienced by the plants and if this effect is different among herbivors feeding guilds

Here you find a script for R which allows to calculate the local neighbourhood for each individual tree in the Main Experiment. However, target trres may only be from the 1X1Y (XXYY position within plots) rows in each plot in the main experiment....
