Data on Microclimate in hollow trees and how it affects an inhabiting beetle species, Osmoderma eremita

Microclimate in hollow trees and how it affects an inhabiting beetle species, Osmoderma eremita
https://doi.org/10.5878/856g-v725
The data includes measured habitat characteristics, microclimatic variables, and species data collected with mark-recapture method. It was used for analyses to explore microclimate in tree hollows in relation to tree characteristics; and how these variables affect the occurrence and body size of Osmoderma eremita (hermit beetle). Manuscript: "Microclimate in hollow trees and how it affects an inhabiting beetle species, Osmoderma eremita". The study is in English. Species-related data is collected with mark-recapture method (pitfall trap). Moisture/humidity is measured with soil moisture meter (GS3 sensor; Decagon Devices). Temperature data is recorded with Lascar EL-USB-1 data-loggers.
