Data from: Chronosequence resampling elucidates tree community and forest structure recovery patterns in restored tropical rainforest

We investigated the forest structure, tree diversity and community in an
actively restored rainforest in Kibale National Park, East Africa, Uganda.
Vegetation surveys were done in 2013 and 2021. The study area consisted of
actively restored compartments planted in 1995, 1999, 2000, 2005, 2007,
2008, 2011a and 2017a (a = surveyed only in 2021) and primary
forest as a reference site (altogether 55 study sites).  In the
datasets, we present: (1) the tree community data (total
estimated stem density / ha)(2) univariable data for each study site
(forest structure and diversity variables, and metadata of the study
sites)(3) DBH data for planted trees.
