Data from: Including tree spatial extension in the evaluation of neighbourhood competition effects in Bornean rain forest

1. Plot data for the tree neighbour modeling The data presented here come from the two 4-ha permanent plots in lowland dipterocarp forest within the Danum Valley Conservation Area, Sabah, East Malaysian (NE Borneo), close to the Ulu Segama, set up and maintained for a study of long-term forest dynamics. Full details of the plots’ set-up, coordinates, site background, methods of enumeration, taxonomy, etc. are to be found in previous papers [1-3]. 1] Lingenfelder, M. & Newbery, D.
