This data documents the tree growth parameters in 2014 for site A, belonging to the annual inventory taking place for both site A and site B. Individual-tree growth is a function of stand attributes, local neighbors, plant size, plant damage, geno...

Trap nests (eigth traps per plot; four traps each attached to a wooden post; located at two randomly selected corners the corners of the central 10 x 10 m subplot) were used to collect solitary bees and wasps in the CSPs. Abundance and species ric...

The dataset was used to analyze the mechanisms underlying herbivore community stability in a species-rich subtropical forest ecosystem (BEF-China experiment), assessing key properties of herbivore communities and the extent to which these are coup...

In soil erosion research it is widely accepted that vegetation is a key factor for the type and intensity of erosion. Thus, scientists have long recognized the importance of forests for erosion control and afforestation is a common measure of soil...

This data documents the shrub growth parameters in 2012 for site B, belonging to the annual inventory taking place for both site A and site B. Individual-shrub growth is a function of stand attributes, local neighbors, plant size, plant damage, ge...

In order to get tree growth curves we estabilshed an allometry campaign during which we carefully measured, subsampled, dried and then re-constructed the biomass of 154 trees belonging to 8 species. The sampling is done to allows estimation of bio...
