Description

Stem-level dataset with plant heights and masses

Format

A dataframe with the following columns:

yr

year of sample collection

mo

month of sample collection (3-character form)

mo2

month of sample collection (numeric)

region

region

site

name of sampling marsh

lat

latitude, decimal degrees

long

longitude, decimal degrees

dist

distance from marsh edge, meters

id

unique identifier for individually-weighed stems

status

live/dead status of plant

hgt

height from plant base to longest outstretched point. Units = centimeters

mass_tot

total mass of plant. Units = grams

mass_s

stem mass. Units = grams

mass_l

leaf mass. Units = grams

flwr

dummy variable indicating flowering status (1 = inflorescence/infructescence present). Inconsistently censused.

flwr_len

length of inflorescence/infructescence. Units = centimeters

flwr_mass

mass of inflorescence/infructescence. Units = grams

moYr

month-year of sampling (form = "%b-%Y")

time

month-year of sampling as yearmon data type

season

season-year of sampling

seas

season of sampling

plantYr

year of sampling (modifed so as not to split the winter between calendar years)

mass.est1

plant mass estimated from allometry. Units = grams

mass.est2

plant mass estimated from allometry. Units = grams

modeled

dummy variable indicating whether final plant mass is directly measured (= 0) or estimated from allometry model (= 1)

mass

best estimate of plant mass; directly measured, when available. Otherwise, estimated from allometry models. Units = grams
