Kinetic energy of throughfall in subtropical forests of SE China–effects of tree canopy structure, functional traits, and biodiversity

Abstract:
To relate throughfall kinetic energy to specific tree species and to forest stands of different biodiversity levels: How and to what extend do specific species change the kinetic energy of throughfall? Is the effect of tree height and crown arch...

Functional and phylogenetic dissimilarity of woody plants drive insect herbivory in highly diverse forests

Abstract:
The degree of herbivore damage a plant species experiences has been shown to often be affected by the density of conspecific plant neighbors. However, host spectra of many herbivores often comprise a suite of related plant species, and generalist ...

rBEFdata: Documenting data exchange and analysis for a collaborative data management platform

Abstract:
We are witnessing a growing gap separating primary research data from derived data products presented as knowledge in publications. Although journals today more often require the underlying data products used to derive the results as a prerequisit...

Soil and tree species traits both shape soil microbial communities during early growth of Chinese subtropical forests

Abstract:
A better understanding of the linkages between aboveground and belowground biotic communities is needed for more accurate predictions about how ecosystems may be altered by climate change, land management, or biodiversity loss. Soil microbes are s...

Tree diversity promotes predator but not omnivore ants in a subtropical Chinese forest

Abstract:
1. Epigeic ants are functionally important arthropods in tropical and subtropical forests, particularly by acting as predators. High predation pressure has been hypothesized to be a mechanism facilitating high diversity across trophic levels. 2. ...

Mixed afforestations of young subtropical trees promote nitrogen acquisition and retention

Abstract:
Afforestation is globally increasing to produce timber and pulp wood, but also to enhance ecosystem services such as carbon sequestration, nutrient retention or groundwater recharge. In China, large areas have been and will be afforested in or...
