Abundances and species of meadow experiments (Darmstadt, BioDivKultur, 2023)

Arthropod abundances, species, and mowing treatment data. Mowing experiments conducted in and around Darmstadt on 10 meadows, 2023. Collection of arthropods using suction sampling (biocoenometer). Treatments: three different mowers and corresponding refuges. Urban mowers: Mulcher_normal: a conventional flail mulcher (Müthing), Mulcher_Oeko: a potentially “insect-friendly” roadside eco mulcher with a scare device mounted in the front (Müthing), and bar_mower: a bar mower (Kersten). The collection was directly before mowing, directly after, and three days later.

本数据集涵盖节肢动物丰度、物种信息及刈割处理相关数据。2023年，研究团队在德国达姆施塔特市内及周边的10块草甸开展刈割实验。节肢动物样本采集采用抽吸采样法，使用设备为生物群落采样器（biocoenometer）。实验共设置三种城市用刈割设备及其配套庇护区：常规甩刀式碎草机（Mulcher_normal，品牌为Müthing）、搭载前置驱避装置的“昆虫友好型”路边生态碎草机（Mulcher_Oeko，品牌为Müthing），以及杆式刈割机（bar_mower，品牌为Kersten）。样本采集分别于刈割前即刻、刈割后即刻及刈割后三日进行。
