Description
This dataset comprises data from the Global Change Experimental Facility (GCEF) (https://doi.org/10.1002/ecs2.2635).
The data was obtained between 2014 and 2023.
Martin Schädler (martin.schaedler@ufz.de) is the scientific coordinator of the GCEF.
Martin Schädler and Harald Auge (harald.auge@ufz.de) designed the GCEF.
Martin Schädler, Thomas Reitz, Rui Yin, Harald Auge, Ines Merbach, Christiane Roscher, Stan Harpole, Evgenia Blagodatskaya, Julia Siebert, Marcel Ciobanu, and Nico Eisenhauer collected the data.
Friedrich Scherzinger (friedrich.scherzinger@idiv.de) compiled the dataset.
Some columns in the dataset are empty as they are placeholders for numerical data that will be filled during the data analysis process. They are left empty in the initial dataset to accommodate the subsequent analysis and to maintain the structure of the dataset.
For more information on how the data was obtained and on the context of its collection, please refer to Scherzinger et al. (2023). Sustainable land management enhances ecological and economic multifunctionality under ambient and future climate (pre-print).
