Platform data

Overview

Detailed view

AMF root colonization of roots extracted from the upper soil layer (5cm) at all NUMEX plots. Roots are stained with Trypan Blue, AMF root colonization is examined by the line-intersect method.

Corrected plots from Bombuscaro, ECSF, Cajanuma, Zamora and Laipuna region as shape files.

Weekly time series of precipitation data (water fluxes, electrical conductivity, pH values) from the Bombuscaro site at 1000 m a.s.l. located at the climate station. The updated weekly time series extends between March 2018 and December 2023. Precipitation was sampled with 5 Hellmann-type collectors. Replicates were collected, volume-weighted and bulked to one sample per plot. Electrical conductivity and pH values were measured immediately in unfiltered aliquots in the laboratory at the ECSF.

Aggregated values from 2018 are incomplete (March to December).

Measurements of gas flux (CO2, CH4, N2O) in canopy soils of NUMEX plots on four dates (Sept/Nov 2011 and Jan/April 2012). Measurements were taken in 3 of the 4 NUMEX blocks at each elevation; treatments measured included C, N, NP and P.

Gas fluxes were measured by incubating intact soil cores.
Gas samples were analyzed on a gas chromatograph with a FID and ECD.
Note that the units for CO2 are mg CO2-C m-2 h-1 (not g CO2-C).

Ongoing data collected from Bombuscaro Thies climate station.

Raw data, initial visual control only. Use data with great care, errors might be included.

Herbivory estimated as leaf area loss [cm^2] and [%] and leaf traits were generated from sun-exposed leaves of 380 tree canopies belonging to 51 tree species (7 +/- 1 tree individual per species) located within the nine 1 ha forest core plots at 1000 m (Bombuscaro), 2000 m (San Francisco), and 3000 m (Cajanuma) in the Podocarpus Nationalpark and the Reserva Biológica San Francisco in southern Ecuador between February and March in 2019.
To estimate herbivory, 20 +/- 5 leaves per tree were scanned and analyzed with the software WinFOLIA. Leaf traits were either measured conventionally with morphometrical and chemical measurement techniques or spectrally with an OceanOptics spectrometer HDX to identify the reflectance wavebands of certain molecular foliar structures.

This dataset is a joined work of the RESPECT subprojects A1 (provided spectrally estimated leaf traits), B1 (provided leaf traits derived from conventional measurement techniques), and B4 (provided herbivory data).

Monthly measurement of soil temperature and soil gas fluxes (CO2, N2O) in the NUMEX plots in Bombuscaro, ECSF und Cajanuma

Monthly measurements of gas fluxes were performed using static vented chambers.
Soil temperature was taken simultaneously with gas measurements.

List of sequences of uncultured Glomeromycota with their GenBank accession numbers

This dataset contains fruit phenology data from 37 fleshy-fruited species at three different altitudes (1000, 2000, 3000 masl) over 10 months (2019 & 2020).

Orthomosaic containing Georeferenced RGB Values from Bombuscaro forest aquired with a low flying UAV.

Analyses if morphological and physiological attributes of seedlings from the two most common species in NUMEX experiment at the three elevations. Changes in this attributes are altered by nutrient availability in this case fertilization might showed specific limitation for N or P.

Weekly time series of throughfall data (water fluxes, electrical conductivity, pH values) from the Bombuscaro site at 1000 m a.s.l. located in NUMEX Plot 12 (control). The updated weekly time series extends between March 2018 and December 2023. Throughfall was sampled with 20 Hellmann-type collectors. Replicates were collected, volume-weighted and bulked to one sample per plot and sampling period. Electrical conductivity and pH values were measured immediately in unfiltered aliquots in the laboratory at the ECSF.

Aggregated values from 2018 are incomplete (March to December).

This dataset contains fruit functional traits of fleshy-fruited species at three different altitudes (1000, 2000, 3000 masl)

Data in progress until the end of 2020.
Final data will be available in 2021.
