Based on a comprehensive dataset of lepidopteran herbivores recorded from the BEF sites, we tested the contribution to herbivore species co-occurrence of herbivore phylogenetic relatedness, plant diversity and functional traits, and spatial scale....

Mixed-species forests are promoted as a forest management strategy for climate change adaptation, but whether they are more resistant to drought than monospecific forests remains contested. Particularly, the trait-based mechanisms driving the role...

Herbivory levels estimated categorically, and main cause of damage for site A extinction scenario A trees following TreeDi tree species pair (TSP) sampling design.

Soil physical analyses of all 27 comparative study plots. Mass-% of 8 grain size classes of fine earth < 2 mm of six depth increments per CSP. Total depth is 50 cm. Grain sizes discriminate between sand, silt, and clay.

This Dataset contains 15 leaf traits (LDMC, SLA, Leaf N, Leaf C, CN Ratio, Leaf Mg, Leaf Ca, Leaf K, Leaf P, Cellulose, Hemicellulose, Lignin, Phenol, Tannin, Sulfur) measured in different sampling heights within the individuals. Traits were analy...
