Description

Demographic data of Hypericum cumulicola in "Florida rosemary scrub at" Archbold Biological Station (FL, USA). Life cycle, experimental design and data are described in Quintana-Ascencio & Menges (2003). Data contains a subset of individuals from population "bald 1" and annual period "1997-1998". Full dataset can be obtained upon request to the authors (pedro.quintana-ascencio@ucf.edu).

Details

data-frame with headings:

- id: unique plant id (this file contains only a subset of all individuals)

- bald: population (this subset contains only one population)

- year: transition from t to t+1 (this subset contains only data for 1997-1998)

- size: length of longest stem in individual (cm) in time t

- ontogeny: recruits vs established individuals in time t (1 = individual was recruited in time t, 0 = already established individual prior to time t, NA = individual not yet recruited in time t)

- fec0: probability of reproduction (0= no flowering, 1 = individual was flowering in time t, NA = individual not alive in year t)

- fec1: number of fruits per plant (NA if fec0 = 0)

- surv: survival (0 = dead, 1= alive, NAs if not yet recruited or past dead)

- sizeNext: length of longest stem in individual (cm) in time t+1

- ontogenyNext: recruits vs established individuals in time t+1 (1 = individual was recruited in time t+1, 0 = already established individual prior to time t+1, NA = individual not yet recruited or dead in t+1)

#Access data from the long-term censuses on Hypericum cumulicula 
# carried out by Eric Menges, Pedro Quintana-Ascencio and coworkers 
# at Archbold Biological Station. Here only a subset of individuals 
# from population 'bald 1' and for the annual transition '1997-1998' are shown.

#Variables are:
  #id: unique identifier for each individual
  #bald: population. Here only bald 1
  #year: annual transition of the long-term data. Here only 1997-1998
  #surv: survival (1) or not (0) of individuals between 1997 and 1998
  #size: maximum height of the stems of each individual
  #ontogeny: because the demography of Hypericum is very dynamic 
  #      (turnover is very high) the experimental design described 
  #       in Quintana-Ascencio et al. (2003) consists on establishing 
  #       new permanent plots every year at each population, 
  #       in addition to censusing old plots. Here we differentiate 
  #       between individuals that appear for the first time in time t 
  #       because they were recruits (1) and those that, not being new 
  #       recruits, where measured for the first time in t because they 
  #       were in a new permanent plot.
  #fec0: probability of flowering (1) or not (0)
  #fec1: number of fruits per individual
  #sizeNext: same as "size" above, for t+1
  #stageNext: same as "stage" above, for t+1

#Due to the sampling design described above, here we consider only 
# individual with a certain recruit origin:
d <- subset(d,is.na(d$size)==FALSE | d$ontogenyNext==1)

#Side-experiments revealed that the following vital rates are size-independent 
# and equal to:
  #Number of seeds produced per fruit
    fec2<-13.78
  #Probability of seedling establishment
    fec3<-0.001336
  #Probability of seedling survival half a year after germinating, 
  #   corresponding to the next annual census

  #Probability of a seed going into the seed bank
    goSB<-0.08234528
  #Probability of a seed staying in the seed bank
    staySB<-0.672
#Note that the aforementioned vital rates are function of time since last fire, 
#but because here we are only dealing with one population and one year 
#transition, we treat them as constants. See Quintana-Ascencio et al (2003) 
#for more information.
