Something odd with biomass, sent an email to Yujie Niu, Anh Le, and Tyson Terry.

"I had a question about Bayreuth NutNet data. There is something odd going on in the biomass data (attached) that I can't figure out. In the September data, there are a lot of extra categories (not a problem, I can aggregate), but there are categories like grass, sedge, etc on September 13, and then categories like graminoid on September 19th. Since grasses and sedges are both graminoids, I'm not sure how to interpret these two different (but close together) dates. Can you help me interpret? Also, graminoids in plot 4 on September 19 (line 283) has a typo, as it says mass is over 1000g. Please correct."

Yujie responded:

"We checked our Bayreuth NutNet data again. Regarding grass/graminoid, we found it's because of some students wrote "grass," while others used "graminoid." These two terms are essentially interchangeable in our case. We already changed all the "graminoid" to "grass".

Regarding one typo, we reweighted the sample, it should be 10.29g.

The corrections have been applied to the attached CSV file."
