This dataset is derived from the WOODIV database (available at: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41597-021-00873-3). It contains the values of four functional traits for 24 Conifer tree species occurring in Portugal, Spain, France, and Italy (Mediterranean part).

This dataset shows the format of the argument species_traits used in several functions of funbiogeo. Note that species names must be the first column and must be named species.

Usage

woodiv_traits

Format

A data.frame with 24 rows (species) and the following five columns:

species

species name corresponding to the columns of site_species

plant_height

adult plant height (in \(m\))

seed_mass

seed mass (in \(g\))

sla

specific leaf area, i.e. the ratio between leaf area and dry mass (in \(m^{2}\cdot kg^{-1}\))

wood_density

wood density, i.e. stem specific density (in \(kg\cdot dm^{–3}\))
