Data and code from: Soil age and soil phosphate content shape microarthropod communities of Dutch forest ecosystems

Description

This study compares microarthropod communities across forest locations differing in soil age and soil phosphate levels, using a trait-based approach focused on the species’ feeding guild and body size. We compared 3 old forest soils, 19 young forest soils, and 10 old hedgerow soils. The old hedgerow soils resembled old forest soils in age, but have higher P-availability, allowing us to disentangle these effects.
