Vascular Plant Data, Direct Measure of Stems, Warra Tall Eucalypt SuperSite, 2013-2015

The dataset comprises measurements of all stems (dead or alive) > 10 cm dbh in the “New” Core 1 ha plot at the Warra SuperSite done according to the Supersite vegetation monitoring protocols (Australian Supersites Network, 2015). The dataset includes measurements of location within the core 1 ha plot, plant taxon, diameter, status (dead or alive). Height measurements are only provided for tree ferns. The data came from two measurement campaigns. The first done in June 2012 was in the original Core 1ha plot at Warra. The second done in October 2013 was in a 0.6 ha (60 x 100 m) extension to the western boundary of the original 1 ha plot. The 0.6 ha extension was installed to allow the creation of a “new” 1 ha Core plot in undisturbed forest within the footprint of the Warra Flux Tower. The “new” 1 ha Core Plot dataset comprises the 0.6 ha extension and the western-most 0.4 ha (40 x 100 m) of the original plot. Original location, taxon and dbh measurements were made in 2013 and height measurements were made from the ground in 2015. The height measurements of the over-storey eucalypt were derived from LiDAR imagery acquired in Feb 2011. Reference: Australian SuperSites Network (2015) SuperSite Vegetation Monitoring Protocols.
