trlsmoopsp: Smoothed tree list data from permanent sample plots

Description

Temporal tree-level variables (smoothed-values) within four sample plots in an experimental forest in Austria. The dataframe contains all the variables for all trees, where observation gaps were filled from monotone increasing predictive functions. Plot sizes are 2500 m\(^{2}\) (approx.) and the current dataframe only keeps the measurement years having a more reliable amount of records.

Usage

data(trlsmoopsp)

Format

Contains tree-level variables, as follows:

plot

Plot number.

tree

Tree identificator.

year

Year of measurement.

species

Species code as follows: PCAB=Picea abies, LADC=Larix decidua, PNSY=Pinus sylvestris, FASY=Fagus Sylvatica, QCPE=Quercus petraea, BTPE=Betula pendula.

obs

Observation in this year.

dbh

Diameter at breast-height, in cm.

toth

Tree height, in m.

hcb

Height to the crown base, in m.
