Methodology
  • This dataset contains measurements of bark and wood traits of 41 seedling species from tropical dry forests. Between two and six seedlings (i.e., 20-70 cm in height, and less than 1 cm in diameter) per species were collected in four mature dry forest in Colombia. Cross and tangential anatomical sections were cut using a rotary microtome. Sections were stained (AstraBlue + Safranine), dehydrated in ethanol series, dipped in solvent and mounted on slides. Photographs were taken at 10x, 40x and 100x magnification. All traits were measured using the ImageJ software.
Description
  • This dataset is part of a research project that aims to study how bark and wood traits shape species ecological strategies at the seedling stage in four tropical forests in Colombia. These forests are located in the municipalities of Jabiru (Tolima), Cotove (Antioquia), Colorados (Bolivar) and Tyrona (Magdalena). Detailed information on the location of these forests can be found in:  https://doi.org/10.1111/ele.13659
