Data sets of various tropical forest communities
Description
Various tree commnunity abundance data sets to test and illustrate the Independent Species approach.
dset1.abunvec contains a list of 6 samples of tree abundances from 6 tropical forest plots (BCI, Korup, Pasoh, Sinharaja, Yasuni, Lambir).
dset2.abunvec contains a list of 11 lists with one of 11 samples from BCI combined with samples from Cocoli and Sherman.
dset3.abunvec contains a list of 6 lists with 2 samples, each from one dispersal guild, for 6 tropical forest communities (BCI, Korup, Pasoh, Sinharaja, Yasuni, Lambir).
dset4a.abunvec contains a list of 6 samples from 6 censuses of BCI (1982, 1985, 1990, 1995, 200, 2005) with dbh > 1 cm.
dset4b.abunvec contains a list of 6 samples from 6 censuses of BCI (1982, 1985, 1990, 1995, 200, 2005) with dbh > 10 cm.
