1. Plant diversity has been found to increase herbivore diversity, including abundance, species richness, and phylogenetic diversity. However, it is yet to be established at which spatial scale these effects are strongest, because host finding and...

Fungal diversity and community composition are mainly related to soil and vegetation factors. However, the relative contribution of the different drivers remains largely unexplored, especially in subtropical forest ecosystems. We studied the funga...

The soil microbial activity data from intensive sampling site B in 2012. Activities of four hydrolytic enzymes involved in breakdown of cellulose (β-glucosidase), xylan(ß-xylosidase), chitin (N-acetyl-glucosaminidase) and polyphosphate (acid phosp...

Aggregated daily measurments for the Gutianshan climate station from February 2009 to February 2012. Mind that only those values with measurement count 288 or 24 are valid, corresponding to 5 min or 60 min measurement intervals. Additionally an...
