Growth and carbohydrates in temperate and Mediterranean treelines

The file contains two sheets: 1. NSC shows total soluble carbohydrate, starch, and non structural carbohydrates concentrations per mass unit (col I, J, K, respectively) and per volume unit (N, O, P, respectively) in three tissues (col D, new developing twings, stem sapwood, and branches) in early summer and early autumn (col E, spring and autumn, respectively) 6-8 adult trees of different species (lenga: Nothofagus pumilio, frangel: Kageneckia angustifolia, uncinata: Pinus uncinata, sylvestris: Pinus sylvestris) at three elevations (treeline, intermediate named as "inter", and closed or montane forest named as "low") of altitudinal gradients sampled in four locations of Chile (termas: Termas de Chillán, antillanca: Antillanca area within Puyehue National Park, castillo: Cerro Castillo Natural Reserve, in Patagonia, and farellones: Farellones in Central Chile) and Spain (pyrenees: Sierra de Cutas area in Spanish Central Pyrenees, and sierra: Sierra Nevada). First col indicates the climate for each location. 2. BAI refers to mean annual basal area increment of the last 10 years in 6-8 adult trees of different species (lenga: Nothofagus pumilio, frangel: Kageneckia angustifolia, uncinata: Pinus uncinata, sylvestris: Pinus sylvestris) at three elevations (treeline, intermediate named as "inter", and closed or montane forest named as "low") of altitudinal gradients sampled in four locations of Chile (termas: Termas de Chillán, antillanca: Antillanca area within Puyehue National Park, castillo: Cerro Castillo Natural Reserve, in Patagonia, and farellones: Farellones in Central Chile) and Spain (pyrenees: Sierra de Cutas area in Spanish Central Pyrenees, and sierra: Sierra Nevada). First col indicates the climate for each location.该文件包含两个工作表： 1. 工作表NSC（非结构性碳水化合物，Non-Structural Carbohydrates，NSC）：记录了三种组织（对应D列：新发育嫩枝、茎边材与枝条）在初夏与初秋（E列分别标注为春季与秋季）的单位质量（分别为I、J、K列）与单位体积（分别为N、O、P列）的碳水化合物含量。受试对象为智利4个采样点（奇兰温泉（Termas de Chillán）、普耶韦国家公园内的安蒂兰卡区域、巴塔哥尼亚的卡斯蒂略山自然保护区、智利中部的法列隆）与西班牙2个采样点（西班牙中央比利牛斯山脉的库塔斯山脉（Sierra de Cutas）区域、内华达山脉（Sierra Nevada））的3个海拔梯度（林木线、中间海拔命名为"inter"、封闭山地森林命名为"low"）上6-8株不同物种的成年树木，包括lenga：假山毛榉（*Nothofagus pumilio*）、frangel：Kageneckia angustifolia、uncinata：欧洲山松（*Pinus uncinata*）、sylvestris：欧洲赤松（*Pinus sylvestris*）。首列标注各采样点的气候类型。 2. 工作表BAI（基部面积生长量，Basal Area Increment，BAI）：记录了6-8株上述受试树种成年树木的近10年平均基部面积生长量，其采样设计与NSC工作表完全一致，涵盖相同的采样点、海拔梯度与受试树种，首列标注各采样点的气候类型。
