Mangrove forest structure, species composition, and biomass in fuelwood-harvested and non-harvested areas of Bhitarkanika Wildlife Sanctuary in eastern India

This dataset contains forest structure, composition and regeneration data including diameter at breast height (DBH) and tree heights for mangroves in fuelwood-harvested and non-harvested areas of Bhitarkanika Wildlife Sanctuary, on the eastern coast of India. This data was collected between October 2018 and March 2019 and used to assess mangrove aboveground biomass and blue carbon stocks. A complete account on the methodology used to collect this data is provided in the publication associated with this dataset, which can be found here: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecss.2020.106974.
