[{"name":"manzoni-2017-cue-1","title":"Carbon use efficiency along resource stoichiometry gradients","summary":"Carbon use efficiency (CUE, the ratio of carbon used for growth over carbon taken up) is an important regulator of the carbon cycle. This dataset presents a collections of approximately 2200 CUE estimates at the single organism level (for animal consumers) and at the microbial community level, obtained from published literature sources. The dataset is designed to assess CUE changes along gradients of resource nutrient availability (nitrogen and phosphorus), in both terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems spanning all major climatic zones.","citations":"Manzoni S., \u010capek P., Mooshammer M., Lindahl B., Richter A., H. \u0160antr\u016f\u010dkov\u00e1. 2017: Optimal metabolic regulation along resource stoichiometry gradients, Ecology Letters.

(2017, Ecology Letters, doi: 10.1111\/ele.12815) is provided when using the dataset. \r\n2) This dataset is a collection of published data. Thus, full citation of the original articles (reported in the Supplementary Information to Manzoni et al. 2017) has to be provided when using data from individual species or sources. \r\n3) The lead author S. Manzoni should be notified when the dataset is used in any publication or derivative work. \r\n\r\nDISCLAIMER: The data points have been obtained from tables and digitalized figures, and in some cases subsequently analyzed, in the most accurate and reproduceable way. However, complete accuracy cannot be guaranteed and data are made available \"as is\". The authors of this dataset are thus not responsible for damages resulting from its use or interpretation in any derivative work.","category":"Terrestrial","subcategory":"Soil","keywords":"Carbon; Nitrogen; Phosphorus; Ecological stoichiometry; Carbon-use efficiency; Nutrient limitation","scientist":"Stefano Manzoni, Petr \u010capek, Maria Mooshammer, Bj\u00f6rn D.
