title: Carbon and nitrogen concentrations in plants (Main Experiment, year 2006)

description: This data set contains measurements of carbon and nitrogen concentrations in aboveground plant biomass. Data presented here is from the Main Experiment plots of a large grassland biodiversity experiment (the Jena Experiment; see further details below). In the main experiment, 82 grassland plots of 20 x 20 m were established from a pool of 60 species belonging to four functional groups (grasses, legumes, tall and small herbs). In May 2002, varying numbers of plant species from this species pool were sown into the plots to create a gradient of plant species richness (1, 2, 4, 8, 16 and 60 species) and functional richness (1, 2, 3, 4 functional groups). Plots were maintained in general by bi-annual weeding and mowing. Since 2010, plot size was reduced to 5 x 6 m and plots were weeded three times per year.Aboveground plant biomass was harvested twice in June and August at estimated peak standing biomass before mowing. Plants were clipped at 3 cm above ground level in four rectangles of 20 x 50 cm size per plot. All material was sorted to species, weeds and rest (dead). Samples were dried at 70 °C for at least 48 h and weeds and rest were thrown away. All other material from one plot was combined to one sample and cut up with an analysis mill (Kinematica, Littau, Schweiz). A small subsample of this material was milled to fine powder in a ball-mill (Retsch 2000 M). From the milled material 20 mg were weighed in for CN analysis. Carbon and nitrogen concentrations of this subsample were then determined with an elemental analyzer (VarioEL CHNS).
description: The main experiment on the field site of the Jena Experiment comprises a split-plot design in which additional treatments (e.g. no weeding allowing for invasion of other species, or application of fertilizer) have been applied to subplots along the outer margin of the plots (see Treatment description in the section "further details"). While in this dataset only data from the core area (mown and weeding of all none-sown species twice a year, no additional treatments) is reported, all potential treatments are listed as the first parameters in the data file to guarantee compatibility with other datasets that include different treatments. There are two types of missing values contained in the dataset. Empty cells represent missing values that result from the design of the experiment when the respective value does not occur and could thus not be measured. For example, in the columns of species-specific biomass cells are left blank, when the species was not sown into the respective plot. Missing values that resulted from methodological problems, sampling errors, or lost samples/data are marked with "-9999".This dataset is part of a collection of measurements of element concentrations in plants in the Jena Experiment. Similar data from other experiments (e.g. Main Experiment, Dominance Experiment; see details above), other years, or other methods quantifying related data might be available (https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.887388).

title: Plant height along the plant diversity gradient in the Jena Experiment (Main Experiment, year 2008)

description: This data set contains measurements of plant height: vegetative height (heighest leaf) and regenerative height (heighest flower) in 2008 from the Main Experiment plots of a large grassland biodiversity experiment (the Jena Experiment; see further details below). In the Main Experiment, 82 grassland plots of 20 x 20 m were established from a pool of 60 species belonging to four functional groups (grasses, legumes, tall and small herbs). In May 2002, varying numbers of plant species from this species pool were sown into the plots to create a gradient of plant species richness (1, 2, 4, 8, 16 and 60 species) and functional richness (1, 2, 3, 4 functional groups). Plots were maintained by bi-annual weeding and mowing. In 2008, plant height was recorded twice a year just before biomass harvest (during peak standing biomass in late May and in late August). For target plant individuals at 10 points separated by 1 m each along a transect in the central area in the plots, vegetative height (heighest leaf) and regenerative height (heighest flower) were measured as standing height (without stretching the plant). In 2008, also the plots of the management experiment, that altered mowing frequency and fertilized subplots (see further details below) were sampled by measuring vegatation height five times, every 1m on a 5m transekt along the side of the management plots. Provided are the individual measurements and the mean over the measured plants.

title: Standing belowground plant biomass from the Jena Experiment (Main Experiment, year 2003)

description: This data set contains measurements of standing belowground plant biomass. Data presented here is from the Main Experiment plots of a large grassland biodiversity experiment (the Jena Experiment; see further details below). In the Main experiment, 82 grassland plots of 20 x 20 m were established from a pool of 60 species belonging to four functional groups (grasses, legumes, tall and small herbs).

Plots were maintained in general by bi-annual weeding and mowing. Since 2010, plots were weeded three times per year.In 2003, standing root biomass was sampled in June. Five soil cores with a 4.8 cm diameter per plot were taken to 30 cm depth and pooled plot-wise. The cores were immediately stored cool until further handling. The bulk material of the pooled cores was weighed and cut with scissors to &lt; 1 cm pieces. For root washing, a 50 g subsample was soaked in water and then repeatedly rinsed with tap water over a 0.5 mm sieve. Remaining soil particles were removed by hand. Roots were dried at 60 - 70 °C and weighed subsequently. In 2003, roots were seperated in coarse (diameter &gt; 2 mm) and fine roots after root washing.

title: Scale cortisol, biomarkers, and gut microbiome of milkfish (Chanos chanos) experimentally exposed to thermal stress

description: Milkfish (Chanos chanos) is one of the most important aquaculture species in Asian countries. These teleost fish are traditionally cultured in outdoor-based systems and therefore have to cope with daily and/or seasonally changing environmental conditions. Temperature changes beyond the optimal range of a fish species are known to induce an endocrine stress response resulting in the release of cortisol via the hypothalamic-pituitary-interrenal axis. Moreover, (thermal) stress induces glucocorticoid-mediated changes in the fish's energy metabolism to cope with the stressor(s) and regain homeostasis. Long-term elevations of cortisol are known to be detrimental for fish performance. In this study, we investigated the stress response of juvenile milkfish, which were exposed to a gradual temperature increase of 1°C per day over 7 days in the range from 26°C to 33°C, followed by an exposure to constant 33°C for 21 days. We quantified ontogenetic (OG) and regenerated (RG) scale cortisol to evaluate chronic stress. To investigate metabolic implications and oxidative stress response, activity levels of key enzymes involved in metabolic (isocitrate dehydrogenase - IDH, lactate dehydrogenase - LDH, electron transfer system - ETS) and antioxidant (superoxide dismutase - SOD, catalase - CAT) related pathways were quantified. Furthermore, we measured available energy resources (protein, carbohydrates, lipids) and potential cellular damage due to oxidative stress (lipid peroxidation - LPO). Finally, changes in the gut microbiome of the milkfish related to the temperature stress were analyzed to elucidate their role in the stress response and interactions with physiological parameters.This study is part of the ACUTE project (AquaCUlture practice in Tropical coastal Ecosystems - Understanding ecological and socio-economic consequences) funded by the Leibniz Association grant SAW-2015-ZMT-4.

title: Cumulative precipitation imposed in the Jena-Ecotron experiment

description: This dataset contains cumulative precipitation imposed in the Jena-Ecotron Experiment in 2012. This experiment was conducted in the Montpellier European Ecotron (CNRS, France), an advanced controlled environment facility for ecosystem research, and aimed at understanding the impact of plant species richness (4 vs. 16 species) for ecosystem carbon and water fluxes.The soil monoliths used in this experiment contained plant communities originating from the long- term Jena Experiment (50°57.1' N, 11°37.5' E, 130 m above sea level; mean annual temperature 9.3°C, mean annual precipitation 587 mm) established in May 2002. Twelve plots were selected for the Jena-Ecotron study according to the following criteria: (1) the four functional groups grasses, legumes, small and tall herbs were present, (2) realized species numbers were close to sown species richness, and (3) plots were equally distributed across the experimental field site to account for different soil textures. Large monoliths (2 m² surface area, diameter of 1.6 m, 2 m depth with a weight of 7 to 8 tons) including intact soil and vegetation were excavated in December 2011 and placed in lysimeters. In March 2012, before the start of the vegetation growth, the lysimeters were transported and installed in the Macrocosms platform of the Montpellier European Ecotron.The precipitation imposed in the Jena-Ecotron experiment aimed at reconstructing the field-measured values recorded in Jena in year 2007. This year was chosen as a proxy of average climatic conditions at the Jena field site. Note that owing to the higher evapotranspiration rates in the Ecotron, higher precipitation (+28%) was imposed in the Ecotron relative to year 2007. Precipitation was applied to each lysimeter by manual watering using a hose equipped with a sprinkler and a flowmeter. The water was purified by microfiltration (1µ) and reverse osmosis followed by ozone and UV treatments.Precipitation values are provided as cumulative values from 28th of March 2012 to 30th of July 2012.
description: There are two types of missing values contained in datasets from the Jena Experiment. Empty cells represent missing values that result from the design of the experiment. Empty cells result when the respective value does not occur in the design and could thus not be measured. For example, in the case of species-specific biomass cells are left blank, when the species was not sown in the respective plot. Missing values that resulted from methodological problems, sampling errors, or lost samples/data are marked with "-9999".This dataset is part of a collection of measurements of the Jena-Ecotron Experiment, which was part of the Jena Experiment.
