Nitrogen Enrichment Experiments Data from a 7-Year Alpine Meadow Study

Song Wang's dataset contains results from a 7-year nitrogen addition experiment on the Qinghai-Tibet plateau alpine meadow. The data includes biomass measurements for leaf, root, standing litter, surface litter, and soil. The dataset was last updated on April 24, 2026, and is shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Modeling the impact of nitrogen addition on plant biomass based on leaf and root data.
• Analyzing litter decomposition dynamics based on standing and surface litter measurements.
• Studying soil carbon storage changes in response to nutrient enrichment based on soil biomass data.
• Calibrating ecosystem models for alpine meadows using the 7-year experimental results.

Strengths

• Data is derived from a 7-year controlled field experiment, providing longitudinal insights.
• Includes multiple biomass components: leaf, root, standing litter, surface litter, and soil.
• Dataset is openly licensed (CC-BY-4.0) for reuse and redistribution.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
