title: Multiple Stable Equilibria or Competitive Superiority in California Grasslands: plant biomass data

description: We began work on this project in December of 1999 by setting up three large experiments in which we are investigating the relative importance of burning, watering, nitrogen deposition, and pocket gopher disturbance on the relative invasiblity of native perennial and exotic annual grasslands. As a part of setting up these experiments we established 136 plots which ranged in size from 9 to 25 square meters. These plots start out as either dominated by exotic annual or native perennial grasses. In addition to their initial composition, we subject these plots to a variety of treatments including seed additions, burning, nitrogen addition, watering, and pocket gopher exclusion. Data include annual sampling of plant cover (1 m2 pinframes), seed production and aboveground plant production (0.2 m2), as well as soil moisture and nutrient concentrations.

title: Effect of resource addition on plant competition in California grasslands: plant biomass data

description: This project is composed of 48 2x2 m plots established in 1999 in a grassland that contains a mixture of native and exotic species. The plots are subjected to a factorial combination of water, nitrogen, and phosphorous addition. Data collection include plant biomass data and percent cover by species.

title: Effect of plant composition on nitrogen cycling in California grasslands: plant biomass data

description: In the fall of 2000, we set up replicated (n=4) plantings of 25 of the most common species on Sedgwick Reserve (1 m^2). We selected species from 6 groupings: native perennial grasses, exotic perennial grasses, native annual grasses, exotic annual grasses, native forbs, and exotic forbs. In the spring of 2003, we collected a wide range of data from each monoculture including plant biomass, seed production, root distribution, and data on c and n cycling.

title: Body Mass of Late Quaternary Mammals

description: The purpose of this data set was to compile body mass information for all mammals on Earth so that we could investigate the patterns of body mass seen across geographic and taxonomic space and evolutionary time. We were interested in the heritability of body size across taxonomic groups (How conserved is body mass within a genus, family, and order?), in the overall pattern of body mass across continents (Do the moments and other descriptive statistics remain the same across geographic space?), and over evolutionary time (How quickly did body mass patterns iterate on the patterns seen today? Were the Pleistocene extinctions size specific on each continent, and did these events coincide with the arrival of man?). These data are also part of a larger project that seeks to integrate body mass patterns across very diverse taxa (NCEAS Working Group on Body size in ecology and paleoecology: linking pattern and process across space, time and taxonomic scales). We began with the updated version of Wilson and Reeder s (1993) taxonomic list of all known Recent mammals of the world (N = 4629 species) to which we added status, distribution, and body mass estimates compiled from the primary and secondary literature. Whenever possible, we used an average of male and female body mass, which was in turn averaged over multiple localities to arrive at our species body mass values. The sources are line referenced in the main data set, with the actual references appearing in a table within the metadata. Mammals have individual records for each continent they occur on. Please note that our data set is more than an amalgamation of smaller compilations. Although we relied heavily a data set for Chiroptera by K. E. Jones (N = 905), the CRC handbook of Mammalian Body Mass (N = 688), and a data set compiled for South America by P. Marquet (N = 505), these total less than half the records in the current database. The remainder are derived from more than 150 other sources (see reference table). Furthermore, we include a comprehensive late Pleistocene species assemblage for Africa, North and South America, and Australia (an additional 230 species). 'Late Pleistocene' is defined as approximately 11 ka for Africa, North and South America, and as 50 ka for Australia, because these times predate anthropogenic impacts on mammalian fauna. Estimates contained within this data set represent a generalized species value, averaged across gender and geographic space. Consequently, these data are not appropriate for asking population-level questions where the integration of body mass with specific environmental conditions is important. All extant orders of mammals are included, as well as several archaic groups (N = 4859 species). Because some species are found on more than one continent (particularly Chiroptera), there are 5731 entries.
