Monitoring of tree growth, water relations and element budget of a mature beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) forest ecosystem in Brandenburg, Germany

The water and element budgets and the vegetation of a mature beech forest stand (Fagus sylvatica L.) in Brandenburg, Germany were investigated over 19 years from 2001 to 2019.
The dataset contains data on open land and forest stand internal meteorology including soil moisture, soil matric potential, soil temperature, concentrations of macro elements and heavy metals in bulk precipitation, throughfall, stemflow, and soil solution. Data on stem growth and litterfall describe the development of the forest stand.
The experimental approach is similar to that of the ICP Forest level II plots (http://icp-forests.net), but additionally considers the spatial variability in the stem distance gradient for throughfall and soil solution.
