102 Chapter 5 On the long-term above-ground carbon, erosion control and epiphyte richness remained bundled, albeit, that on the short-term epiphytes were more strongly related to erosion control and on the long term they were more strongly related to above-ground carbon. Moreover, we found that coffee yield was on the long-term also positively related to this bundle, through a correlation with erosion control. Finally, on the long-term understory vegetation was negatively related to litter cover and coffee berry borer control. We tested for relationships between ecosystem service indicators in the entire dataset, including both periods and monoculture farms; these results are included in the appendix (Table A5-6).
