Relative growth rate data for trees along an elevational gradient in Puerto Rico 2016-2019

Creator:

Umaña, Maria, Swenson, Nathan G, and Arellano, Gabriel

Description:

Identifying the functional traits that enable recovery after extreme events is necessary for assessing forest persistence and functioning, yet this is a difficult task because the traits mediating the responses to disturbance may vary depending on the disturbance type and over time. This study investigates the effects of traits on tree growth –for short and longer terms– in response to two vastly different extreme climatic events, droughts, and hurricanes, in a Puerto Rican forest.
