RTG 2300 - Fine root biomass inventory 2018
This dataset provides information about the fine root biomass inventory conducted in April 2018 in plots of the interdisciplinary research training group 'RTG2300: Enrichment of... -
Soil greenhouse gas fluxes from 2011 to 2015 measured at the Mt. Kilimanjaro
Ten sites covering six different ecosystems were selected for detailed situ N2O and CH4 exchange measurements. The six different ecosystems represent main (semi) natural forest... -
Soil nutrient leaching from ten different sites at the Mt. Kilimanjaro
At ten different sites in the Kilimanjaro region we installed two identical suction cups (SK 20, UMS, Munich, Germany) at 10, 40, and 80 cm soil depths (6 in all) and set them... -
Soil nitrogen gross gurnover rates from the Mt. Kilimanjaro
Gross rates of N turnover were investigated during wet season (May 2011), dry season (February 2012), and during the transition from dry to wet season (October 2011), thus... -
Soil texture, soil organic carbon and total nitrogen contents from samples of...
Physicochemical soil properties were derived from each soil core(N = 60) of 5 times replicated 12 Kilimanjaro ecosystems. Soil pH was measured from 10 g air-dried soil samples... -
Greenhouse gas parameterization experiment with samples from the Mt. Kilimanjaro
Soil core sampling in Tanzania was conducted during the dry season, in February 2011 and 2012. Here, one undisturbed soil core (12.5 cm inner diameter, 25 cm length) was... -
Plant-pollinator interactions along an elevational gradient on Mt. Kilimanjaro
This data set contains 67 quantitative plant-pollinator networks consisting of 268 observational hours and 4380 plant-pollinator interactions, which were recorded along a 3.4 km... -
Dung beetle diversity on Mt. Kilimanjaro
This data set contains plot data on climate, land area, land use, primary productivity, conservation status and mammal defecation rates for explaining the diversity of dung... -
Mammal diversity on Mount Kilimanjaro
This data set contains plot data on climate, land area, land use, primary productivity, conservation and domestic mammals for explaining the diversity of wild mammals on Mount... -
Growth form and fruit and flower numbers of plants on Kilimanjaro
This dataset includes the identities of all fruiting and flowering plants on all study sites sampled for mutualistic interactions (i.e. all except for Hel and Fer). We... -
Mutualistic interactions between plants and birds on Kilimanjaro
This dataset includes mutualistic interactions between flowering and fruiting plants and all bird and (few) mammal species feeding on these resources. The data was collected on... -
Number of bite marks by animals on artificial fruits and insects after an exp...
We quantified frugivory and insectivory rates with artificial fruit and insect experiments on the focal plots of all 13 habitat types in the warm dry season (December to March)... -
Fruit weight of coffee beans from an pollinator/vertebrate-exclosure experime...
Wild animals substantially support crop production by providing ecosystem services, such as pollination and natural pest control. However, the strengths of synergies between... -
2D and 3D Euclidean distance matrix between two plots from the Kilimanjaro ec...
To assess biodiversity and ecosystem processes along altutudianl and disturbance gradients on Mt. Kilimanjaro, a total of 60 study sites in both natural and human-disturbed... -
Standardized Schoeller Diagrams with Matlab - The Plotting Tool
Water analyses typically result in numerous characteristic values. The bunch of parameters hamper temporal or spatial comparisons of different samples. In order to facilitate... -
