| + | ====== Environmental variables ====== | ||
| + | |||
| + | For each permanent 20×20 m plot, we collect: | ||
| + | * standard topographical data | ||
| + | * soil samples for chemical analysis | ||
| + | * canopy structure (fish-eye photography) | ||
| + | * long-term air temperature and humidity measurement | ||
| + | * interior wind speed and direction measurement (for selected windward and leeward plots) | ||

| + | ====== Measured and calculated traits ====== | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Standard leaf traits (woody species & ferns)** | ||
| + | * specific leaf area (SLA) | ||
| + | * leaf area (LA) | ||
| + | * leaf thickness | ||
| + | * leaf dry matter content (LDMC) | ||
| + | * leaf chlorophyll content | ||
| + | * succulence | ||
| + | |||
| + | **Additional leaf and wood traits (for woody species only)** | ||
| + | * leaf nitrogen and phosphorus concentration and isotopic ratio | ||
| + | * stem specific density (SSD, wood density) | ||
| + | * leaf vein density | ||
| + | * leaf wettability | ||
| + | * leaf mechanical resistance (force to tear) <fc # | ||
