Phenotypic measurements of Howea belmoreana and Howea forsteriana from a common garden experiment on Lord Howe Island

The dataset describes the effect of soil type, soil sterilisation and drought treatment on survival rate and growth of Howea belmoreana and Howea forsteriana, grown from seed in an experiment on Lord Howe Island for 30 months. The data describe the number of surviving plants per replicate, as well as height and number of leaves of individual plants at two timepoints. The work was carried out by Dr Owen Osborne and Prof. Vincent Savolainen, Imperial College London, and was funded by the NERC grant NE/M015742/1.本数据集记录了在豪勋爵岛（Lord Howe Island）开展的一项为期30个月的播种育苗实验中，土壤类型、土壤灭菌处理与干旱胁迫对贝尔莫拉荷威棕（Howea belmoreana）及福斯特荷威棕（Howea forsteriana）存活率与生长状况的影响。数据集包含各重复组的存活植株数量，以及两个采样时间点下单株植株的株高与叶片数信息。本研究由伦敦帝国理工学院的欧文·奥斯本博士与文森特·萨沃莱南教授完成，并获得英国自然环境研究理事会（Natural Environment Research Council, NERC）资助项目NE/M015742/1的支持。
