Data Analysis of the Evaluation of Sustainable Riparian Revegetation with Local Fruit Trees around a Reservoir of a Hydroelectric Power Plant in Central Brazil

An experiment was carried out in two sites with fifteen native species, selected for having ideal phytosocio-logical properties, however, nine of them showed a survivability considered satisfactory in a planting situation, with a view to large-scale planting. Assuming that the planting of the nine native fruit trees can be a quick solution to the attraction and preservation of wildlife, it would therefore provide sustainable riparian revegetation around the reservoir. Data of mean values for the fruit trees morphological features are measured: Trees’ percentage of survivors (SUR); Average diameter at breast height (DBH); Average total height (HEI) and; Average number of leaves per branch (LEA). The soil chemical composition of the two sites ES-1 and ES-2 (in Portuguese) is available also.
