Centre du Quebec Forest Plots

In Centre du Quebec, we established 395 circular plots (each 201.06 m2) in 42 forest patches across the region. Each forest had between 8 - 14 plots; in each plot, trees greater than 10 cm at 1.3 m (or diameter at breast height, DBH) were identified to species. We harmonized species names using The Plant List with the R package "Taxonstand" (Cayuela et al. 2019).<br><br>In the dataset, we provide the following variables: forest patch id (patch_id), latitude and longitude of the centroid of each patch in degrees (patch_lat_dec, patch_long_dec), patch area in hectares (patch_area_ha), patch perimeter in meters (patch_perim_m), plot id (plot_id), species binomial (spp_binomial), species ID in TPL (TPL_ID), taxonomic status (taxon_status), and species abundance in terms of numbers of individuals (abundance).<br>If you use this dataset, please cite this article as well: D.

在魁北克中部地区，我们于区域内42处森林斑块中布设了395个圆形样地，每个样地面积为201.06平方米。每处森林布设的样地数量为8至14个；在每个样地中，我们对胸径（diameter at breast height, DBH，即1.3米处直径）大于10厘米的乔木进行物种鉴定。我们借助R包"Taxonstand"，结合世界植物名录（The Plant List）统一了物种名称（Cayuela等人，2019年）。

本数据集包含以下变量：森林斑块编号（patch_id）、各斑块质心的经纬度（以十进制度为单位，对应字段为patch_lat_dec、patch_long_dec）、斑块面积（单位为公顷，字段为patch_area_ha）、斑块周长（单位为米，字段为patch_perim_m）、样地编号（plot_id）、物种双名法名称（spp_binomial）、世界植物名录物种编号（TPL_ID）、分类学状态（taxon_status）以及以个体数量计的物种多度（abundance）。
