Dendroband readings for canopy trees

Description

A data set including measurements taken from dendrobands, which give fine scale readings with a precision of 0.01 inch, allowing for quantifying small, incremental growth not possible with DBH tapes. These data were collected using custom made steel band dendrometer bands fixed to a subsample of trees at ~1.3 height. Custom ruler stickers were used to measure the incremental circumference changes in inches. Dendrometer bands were fixed to ~ 700 trees in the summer of 2018. Measurements began in November 2018 with weekly measurements over the 2019 growing season and annual or bi-annual measurements in subsequent years.
