Our leaflet series The Great Diversity of Xingangshan offers an accessible introduction to the remarkable biodiversity of our experimental site, BEF-China, in Xingangshan, China. Each MultiTroph subproject has prepared a leaflet focusing on a different aspect of biodiversity and other components of the ecosystem. Together, the leaflets provide an overview of the diversity of life and multitrophic interactions found at the BEF-China site and highlight how different organisms contribute to this complex ecosystem.
