This dataset contains the location, size and species of the trees in each plot.

Dead wood plays an important role in element cycling (carbon, nutrients, water, etc.) and the build-up of carbon and nutrient stocks. While C content is considered to be approximately constant along decay gradient, N content grows rapidly as decom...

Leaves are the active interface of energy, carbon and water exchanges between forest canopies and the atmosphere. The leaf component of a canopy may be quantified by its structural attribute Leaf Area Index (LAI), projected leaf area per unit of g...

Most of the plant diversity in European forests is found in the understorey, and despite its relatively low biomass compared to the forest overstorey, its functional importance is high (nectar source for pollinators, habitat for small mammals, aff...

Productivity is great in forests with a capacity to intercept incoming radiation and harness its energy efficiently. Thus, understanding the relationships between forest diversity, tree canopy biomass and photosynthetic parameters is central to pr...

This dataset contains the bird communities sampled from the Spanish region
