Peatland plant functional type effects on decomposition factors are non-pervasive, but microhabitat dependent Peatland decomposition and plant functional types

Abstract

This dataset contains information on the decomposition rate constant (k), the stabilisation factor (S), and the activity of five hydrolytic enzymes (ALA, BG, NAG, PHOS, SUL), as well as data on vascular plant communities sampled in July 2019 in the Store Mosse National Park, Sweden. Samples were taken in plant functional type removal plots (0.5 × 0.5 m) that have been established in 2011.
