This picture shows the general set-up of a CSP. The dataset is ment to give an overview on the general design of a CSP to facilitate the understanding of plot and subplot allocation of positions referred in other datasets available on the CSPs on ...

Soil respiration measurements together with Nico Eisenhauer for a global assessment of soil respiration in forest experiments.

Several field studies have shown the positive effect of diversity on primary productivity in grasslands. However, little is known about forest ecosystems, which are responsible for more than 50 % of global net primary productivity (NPP). In th...

Several field studies have shown the positive effect of diversity on primary productivity in grasslands. However, little is known about forest ecosystems, the most productive vegetation type on Earth and responsible for more than 50 % of global ne...

To test the effect of diversity on stand productivity, in summer 2018 and 2012 we measure the diameter at breast height (DBH) of alI individuals with a DBH between 3 and 10 cm in the central subplot of each CSP (the central subplot is a 10 x 10 m...
