The main objectives of this task are to quantify the decomposition of a standard material (cellulose), and to relate this information to tree diversity and environmental gradients across sites.

Soil cores taken from each subplot of each plot (i.e. 9 per plot), if possible down to 40 cm (Poland), but in other countries it was only possible to 20 cm (except Spain only 10 cm). Forest floor samples were taken separately from the soil cores. ...

Microarthropods data acquired during the SoilForEurope project. Sampling occured during summer 2017. The aim was to investigate the effects of tree communities on soil biodiversity and soil food web across European forests.

This dataset contains the location, size and species of the trees in each plot at year 2012. When necessary data were corrected and completed at the occasion of the second inventory (2017).

This dataset contains the plot descriptors from the Finnish region

This dataset contains the location, size and species of the trees in each plot, and estimation of tree biomass, based on the 2017 inventory (inventory 2).
