Metadata Landscape diversity and local temperature, but not climate, affect arthropod predation among habitat types. Fricke U, Steffan-Dewenter I, Zhang J, Tobisch C, Rojas-Botero S, Benjamin C S, Englmeier J, Ganuza C, Haensel M, Riebl R, Uhler J, Uphus L, Ewald J, Kollmann J, Redlich S Data type: landscape data Detailed land-cover maps (combination of ATKIS 2019, CORINE 2018 and IACS 2019) based on six main land-cover types (semi-natural habitat, forest, grassland, arable, urban, water) were used to calculate landscape diversity as Shannon Index. Columns PlotID = Unique plot identifier LandDiv = landscape diversity: Shannon index based on six main land-use types buffer_radius_m = Spatial scale [m], buffer zone around plot-centre used to calculate landscape diversity
