Litterfall herbivory in fertilised plots in the Central Amazon, 2017-2019

The data consists of leaf traits and nutrients from litterfall in a fertilised old-growth forest in the Central Amazon. Data was collected in a full factorial nutrient addition experiment (nitrogen, phosphorus, and cation treatments). The dataset includes realized leaf area, and Leaf Mass Area (LMA). The field work was completed in August of 2017, 2018 and 2019. The study was funded by NERC, BDFFP (logistical support), and the Brazilian government (students' scholarship).

Statement
The study was carried at the AFEX project (Amazon fertilization Experiment) area at the Biological Dynamics of Forest Fragments Project (BDFFP/ INPA) located approximately 80 km north of Manaus/Amazonas/Brazil (02° 25' 00'' S; 59° 43' 00' W). The analysis was made in August of 2017, 2018, and 2019 (peak of litterfall production). A sample of leaves from all litter traps per plot was analysed. To obtain leaf area in mm², leaf images were analysed with the image processing software Image and LMA(g/m²) was calculated dividing leaf biomass (g) by leaf area.
