Remeasurements of a permanent sample plot in a radiata pine plantation (Chile).

Description

Annual remeasurements of trees within a 1600 m^{2} permanent sample plot established in a radiata pine plantation in Chile. Besides, the trees location are available. The plot is square (40 m × 40 m), and if a tree is found dead, the column dead=1.

Usage

data(psptime)

Format

The data frame contains the following columns:

plot.no

plot id

tree.no

tree id

dbh

Diameter at breast-height, in cm.

year

Measurement year.

x

Cartesian position at the X-axis, in m.

y
