Effects of forest succession on soil physicochemical properties and microbial activity

This dataset contains the data of soil physicochemical properties (pH value, moisture content, microbial respiration rate, soil organic matter, soil alkali-hydrolyzable nitrogen, NH4+ and available phosphorus) and the extracellular enzyme activities involved in C- (cellulase or carboxymethyl cellulase (Cx), and β-1,4-glucosidase (BG)), N- (chitinase or β-N-acetylglucosaminidase (NAG), urease (URE), leucine aminopeptidase (LAP) and nitrate reductase (NR)), and P-acquiring (acid phosphatase (ACP) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP)) in Fagus lucida forests across different ages.
