FOR891_sp05e nitrogen: SP05e Effects of environmental conditions and biodiversity on litter decompos...
Description:
In the first phase of BEF-China, Subproject 5 has quantified key pools and fluxes of the
nitrogen cycle and in close cooperation with the Chinese counterparts also those of the
carbon cycle. These measurements were done in the Comparative Study ...

FOR891_sp10e dead wood: SP10e Biodiversity signature in coarse woody detritus dynamics
Description:
Coarse woody debris (CWD) is an important component of forest ecosystems throughout the
world. It represents a significant carbon and nutrient pool, promotes biodiversity of wooddwelling
organisms, influences erosion and serves as a fuel for wil...

FOR891_sp12c phosporus: SP12c Root trait variation and plasticity in relation to phosphorus availabi...
Description:
Root traits are critical for nutrient uptake in nutrient-poor environments. For phosphorus (P)-
poor subtropical forests of BEF-China, important research questions are how root
morphological and physiological traits have adapted to low P conditi...
