Discharge in m3/s, 5 minute intervals, obtained through water levels records of presure sensor at Milagro subcatchment

Discharge in m3/s, 5 minute intervals, obtained through water levels records of presure sensor at Cruces weir and using the formula for triangular weirs

Discharge in m3/s, 5 minute intervals, obtained through water levels records of presure sensor under the bridge at Planta (diver), measured cross sections of the river using a Sokkia total station and flow measurements using the conductivity method.

Data of repasturisation experiment with information about the location and treatments of the respective plots

Sketch of the site: different plot colour indicates different plot management
Data tables: treatment codes (a) control, (b) second control, (c) simulation of grazing (2x per year), (d) simulation of grazing (5x per year), (e) high fertilization , (f) low fertilization, (g) simulation of grazing (2x per year) + high fertilization, (h) simulation of grazing (5x per year) + high fertilization

Monthly measurements of bracken and Setaria sphacelata cover and leaf height before and after burning or mowing, respectively, on 1m2 plots. Additionally, reference plots without treatment were included in the dataset. Three vegetation types were observed at an abandoned pasture site: pure bracken stands (A),  pure Setaria stands (S),  and mixed stands of both (M). Burning (first burn of the experimental fire area) were applied at 2008-9-25 and mowing was realized between 2008-10-3 and 2008-10-7.

Vegetation dynamics table: The calculated vegetation heights of Setaria sphacelata and bracken consists of averaged single measurements of the largest leaf of each present grass tussock (from soil surface to leaf tip) and the standing height of each present bracken leaf, respectively.
LAI table: LAI measurements were allways taken with the 90° view cap because of the small plot size, 4 points per plot (2 from the left and 2 from the right slope paralell plot border) with 2 above and below measurements each, sensor direction was allways looking from the border into the plot. The given attributes were calculated using the FV2000 Software version 1.11 from LICOR. The 5th sensor ring was excluded before the calculations because the plots were located at steep slopes.

Modern Pollen Rain inverstigations 2009-2010, Pollen Trap studies (pollen trap type used: Behling Trap)

Position of trees in the natural forest experiment was calculated using trigonometric measurements from 2004 and 2009. Precision is estimated to be between 0-10m.

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.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal root colonization (%), colonized root length (cm/cm³) and fine root parameters in response to nutrient additions (N, P and NP) are reported. Samples were taken in October 2010 at the NUMEX plots at 2000m.
