Regeneration after Hurricane Hugo woody species greater than 1cm tall (9ha grid, El Verde)(Wood fall from Hurricane Hugo 9Ha Grid)

The purpose of this data set is to document vegetation damage and recovery following Hurricane Hugo, a borderline category 3-4 hurricane with winds from 130 to 160mph (110kts) and a pressure of 945 to 946.1 mb, which hit Puerto Rico in September 18th, 1989.
