Forest tree, woody debris, and soil inventory data from long-term research plots at the University of Michigan Biological Station (LTREB)
Disturbances to forests, such as logging or wildfires, typically lead to large losses of carbon and nutrients from both the plants and soils of the ecosystem. Virtually all forests are in some state of recovery from such disturbances, whether...

warmXtrophic: plant community responses to direct and herbivore-mediated indirect effects of climate warming across multiple years at KBS LTER, Gull Lake, Michigan and UMBS, Pellston, Michigan
Climate change has both direct and indirect effects on ecological communities. Whereas most climate change ecology experiments manipulate abiotic drivers to measure direct effects of climate on species or communities, fewer quantify the indirect...
