Mammal diversity on Mount Kilimanjaro
This data set contains plot data on climate, land area, land use, primary productivity, conservation and domestic mammals for explaining the diversity of wild mammals on Mount... -
Growth form and fruit and flower numbers of plants on Kilimanjaro
This dataset includes the identities of all fruiting and flowering plants on all study sites sampled for mutualistic interactions (i.e. all except for Hel and Fer). We... -
Mutualistic interactions between plants and birds on Kilimanjaro
This dataset includes mutualistic interactions between flowering and fruiting plants and all bird and (few) mammal species feeding on these resources. The data was collected on... -
Number of bite marks by animals on artificial fruits and insects after an exp...
We quantified frugivory and insectivory rates with artificial fruit and insect experiments on the focal plots of all 13 habitat types in the warm dry season (December to March)... -
Fruit weight of coffee beans from an pollinator/vertebrate-exclosure experime...
Wild animals substantially support crop production by providing ecosystem services, such as pollination and natural pest control. However, the strengths of synergies between... -
2D and 3D Euclidean distance matrix between two plots from the Kilimanjaro ec...
To assess biodiversity and ecosystem processes along altutudianl and disturbance gradients on Mt. Kilimanjaro, a total of 60 study sites in both natural and human-disturbed... -
Analysis of trap-nesting Hymenoptera at Mt. Kilimanjaro
Temperature, food resources and top-down regulation by antagonists are considered as major drivers of insect diversity, but their relative importance is poorly understood. In... -
Plot data of insects and percentage analysis of the leaf area lost by instect...
This data set contains data on elevation, climate, leaf traits and herbivore numbers which were collected for a study on leaf herbivory by invertebrates (mostly insects) on 55... -
Various investigations to analyze the effects on species richness of birds du...
Climate is widely recognized as a major predictor of species richness patterns along large‐scale environmental gradients. Nevertheless, the mechanisms by which climate...
