Methods

Samples from location DHFFZ02 (locations are indicated as the prefix in the sample description) Twelve 10m×10m subplots are used for tree layer surveys (DBH?1cm). Ten random subplots of the second level are used for 5m×5m shrub layer surveys. Within the shrub plots, simultaneous 1m×1m herb layer surveys are conducted. Samples from location DHFFZ01 Twelve 10m×10m subplots are used for tree layer surveys (DBH?1cm). Six random subplots of the second level are used for 5m×5m shrub layer surveys. Within the shrub plots, simultaneous 1m×1m herb layer surveys are conducted. Samples from location DHFZH01 Twenty-five 10m×10m subplots are used for tree layer surveys (DBH?1cm). Within the ten randomly selected subplots of the second level, one 5m×5m shrub subplot is surveyed, totaling ten subplots. Within the shrub subplots, random 1m×1m subplots are established for herb layer surveys. In all three locations, the average abundance and biomass of ten 1m×1m samples is recorded.
