Data contained in this file was collected under project "A01: Future Carbon Storage" within collaborative research centre "CRC Future Rural Africa".
Research and data collection were funded by German Research Foundation (DFG) under funding codes CRC TRR-228/1 and CRC TRR-228/2.
Permission for research has been granted by the Namibian National Commission on Research Science and Technology (NCRST), permit number RPIV00362018.

'Info' sheet contains general information on the dataset, as well as units of measurement and descriptions for all variables and columns of the data.

'df' contains the actual data.

For units and explanations see 'Info' sheet; skip top 6 lines of 'df' for reading raw data as those first lines contain meta information on where each variable was used within original publication: Kindermann et al. (2025) Natural and human disturbances have non-linear effects on whole-ecosystem carbon storage in an African savanna. Global Change Biology, Vol31/4; e70163; https://doi.org/10.1111/gcb.70163.
