Plot-level data of root biomass and variables derived thereof

Root biomass was sampled to a depth of 40 cm and separated into five depth layers in the Trait-based biodiversity experiment in Jena, Germany, in 2012 and 2014. This data file contains plot-level data of root biomass (averaged over the five depth layers) and calculated variables based on root biomass. A description of each variable is included on a separate sheet called ‘metadata’ in each file
