Complete data from the Barro Colorado 50-ha plot: 423617 trees, 35 years

The 50-ha plot at Barro Colorado Island was initially demarcated and fully censused in 1982, and has been fully censused 7 times since, every 5 years from 1985 through 2015 (Hubbell and Foster 1983, Hubbell et al. 1990, Condit et al. 2012, Condit et al. 2017). Every measurement of every stem over 8 censuses is included in this archive. Most users will need only the 8 R Analytical Tables in the format tree, which come here zipped together into a single archive (bci.tree.zip), plus the single R Species Table. Additional tables cover all individuals stems, additional measurements at mulitple positions on some stems, and the full database in original MySQL format. This is the 2019 version of the database, frozen as of 30 May 2019, replacing the 2012 Smithsonian archive (http://dx.doi.org/10.5479/data.bci.20130603). There are unauthorized versions of the BCI database available elsewhere. This is the only version approved by the lead investigators (Condit and Hubbell).
