UV radiation accelerates litter decomposition in a valley-type savanna by enhancing microbial community diversity and function

We present the data of the study by Gao et al. (2024): UV radiation accelerates litter decomposition in a valley-type savanna by enhancing microbial community diversity and function. The excel file (Raw Data) includes the following sheets: 1- Radiation (w·m-2) variation of UV-A and UV-B during the experimental period. 2- Decay constants (K, yr−1) and changes in the mass loss rate of litter under different UV conditions during the experimental period. 3- The content of lignin, cellulose, C, N and P of litter under different UV conditions during the experimental period. 4- 16S ASVs under different UV conditions. 5- ITS ASVs under different UV conditions.
