Tree species abundance per plot in long-established and secondary broad-leaf forests

The data includes species abundance per plot (no. of individuals) in long-established and secondary forests dominated by beech (Fagus sylvativa) in the SW edge of the distribution of this species. The data is associated to the publication "Functional diversity enhances tree growth and reduces herbivory damage in secondary broadleaf forests but does not influence resilience to drought" in Journal of Applied Ecology
