Description: Four SAFE seedling plot censuses including measurement after the 2015-16 El Nino drought and leaf trait dataProject: This dataset was collected as part of the following SAFE research project: Resilience of Tropical Forest Ecosystem Processes to the Interactive Effects of El Nino and Forest DisturbanceXML metadata: GEMINI compliant metadata for this dataset is available hereFiles: This consists of 1 file: Seedling_data_for_SAFE_upload_2_Aug_2018.xlsxSeedling_data_for_SAFE_upload_2_Aug_2018.xlsxThis file contains dataset metadata and 3 data tables:SAFE seedling plot censuses (described in worksheet Censuses)Description: In each of the 84 SAFE vegetation plot a 5 m x 5 m seedling plot was established in 2012. All tree and liana seedlings >= 50 cm height and <= 1 cm DBH were tagged mapped and identified. At the centre of the 5 m x 5 m plot a subplot of 2 m x 2 m was marked out where all seedlings >= 10 cm height were included. Censuses 1&2 in 2012 were carried out by Hamzah Bin Tangki (PhD thesis 2014); census 3 in 2015 was carried out by Michael Massam (MSc thesis 2015); census 4 in 2017 was carried out by Elizabeth Telford. Diameter was measured at 20 cm from ground. Height was measured for tree seedlings (not measured if stem was snapped). A number of stems are missing diameter and height records in earlier censuses but considered alive at those times based on information from census 4 -- these data rows are kept and NA values assigned. Species id were done by SAFE field botanists. 2017 recruits stems have less complete identification. 11 seedling plots were not measured due to disturbances, mainly logging road and landslide.Number of fields: 12Number of data rows: 7376Fields: census: census number (Field type: ID)Plot: SAFE project plot number (Field type: Location)tag: seedling tag number (Field type: ID)North: coordinate within seedling plot: northing (Field type: Numeric)East: coordinate within seedling plot: easting (Field type: Numeric)type: growth form of seedling: tree or vine (liana) (Field type: Categorical)species: species (Field type: Taxa)Da: diameter measurement 1 (Field type: Numeric)Db: diameter measurement 2 (Field type: Numeric)height: seedling height (Field type: Numeric)snapped: stem snapped or not (Field type: Categorical)remark: remark (Field type: Comments)Germination count (described in worksheet Germination)Description: At census 3 and 4, newly germinated seedlings were counted for the 2 m x 2 m seedling subplot. These were not tagged, mapped or identified.Number of fields: 4Number of data rows: 168Fields: Plot: SAFE project plot number (Field type: Location)census: census number (Field type: ID)count: count of newly germinated seedlings (Field type: Abundance)remark: remark (Field type: Comments)Seedling leaf traits (described in worksheet Leaf traits)Description: At census 4, for each seedling in the plots which was deemed big enough, the fifth youngest leaf counting from the top shoot was collected. If damaged, the nearest alternative was taken Leaf petiole was removed and leaf was photographed while fresh. Fresh weight and oven dry weight were measured. Leaf area was calculated from photographs using ImageJ. These measurements were used to calculate seedling CSR trait values (Piece, S., et al. 2017 Functional Ecology)Number of fields: 5Number of data rows: 1072Fields: Plot: SAFE project plot number (Field type: Location)tag: seedling tag number (Field type: ID)Fresh.Weight: leaf fresh weight (Field type: Numeric)Dry.Weight: leaf dry weight (Field type: Numeric)Leaf.Area: leaf area (Field type: Numeric)Date range: 2012-06-01 to 2017-12-31Latitudinal extent: 4.6882 to 4.7714Longitudinal extent: 116.9477 to 117.7028Taxonomic coverage: All taxon names are validated against the GBIF backbone taxonomy. If a dataset uses a synonym, the accepted usage is shown followed by the dataset usage in brackets. Taxa that cannot be validated, including new species and other unknown taxa, morphospecies, functional groups and taxonomic levels not used in the GBIF backbone are shown in square brackets.Plantae - - - - - [Agelaea] - - - - - [Aglaia] - - - - - - [Beilschmiedia caudrea] - - - - - [Callicarpa] - - - - - [Calophyllum] - - - - - [Canarium] - - - - - [Eugenia] - - - - - [Ficus] - - - - - [Helicia] - - - - - [Horsfieldia] - - - - - - [Luvunga heterophylla] - - - - - [Mallotus] - [NA] - - - - - - [Pangium edule] - - - - - [Scaphium] - - - - - - [Semecarpus bunburyana] - - - - - - [Shorea agami] - - - - - [Smilax] - - - - - - [Tetrastigma infokatum] - Tracheophyta - - Liliopsida - - - Arecales - - - - Arecaceae - - - - - Calamus - - - - - - Calamus diepenhorstii - - - Dioscoreales - - - - Dioscoreaceae - - - - - Dioscorea - - Magnoliopsida - - - Aquifoliales - - - - Stemonuraceae - - - - - Stemonurus - - - - - - Stemonurus scorpioides - - - Asterales - - - - Asteraceae - - - - - Chromolaena - - - - - - Chromolaena odorata - - - Celastrales - - - - Celastraceae - - - - - Lophopetalum - - - - - - Lophopetalum beccarianum - - - Cornales - - - - Cornaceae - - - - - Alangium - - - - - - Alangium javanicum - - - Cucurbitales - - - - Cucurbitaceae - - - - - Trichosanthes - - - Dilleniales - - - - Dilleniaceae - - - - - Dillenia - - - - - - Dillenia excelsa - - - - - - Dillenia sumatrana - - - - - Tetracera - - - - - - Tetracera indica - - - - - - Tetracera sarmentosa - - - - - - - Tetracera sarmentosa sarmentosa - - - Ericales - - - - Actinidiaceae - - - - - Saurauia - - - - - - Saurauia ferox - - - - Ebenaceae - - - - - Diospyros - - - - - - Diospyros borneensis - - - - - - Diospyros buxifolia - - - - - - Diospyros diepenhorstii - - - - - - Diospyros elliptifolia - - - - - - Diospyros euphlehia - - - - - - Diospyros frutescens - - - - - - Diospyros macrophylla - - - - Lecythidaceae - - - - - Barringtonia - - - - - - Barringtonia lanceolata - - - - - - Barringtonia sarcostachys - - - - Pentaphylacaceae - - - - - Adinandra - - - - Primulaceae - - - - - Ardisia - - - - - - Ardisia elliptica - - - - - Maesa - - - - - - Maesa macrocarpa - - - - Sapotaceae - - - - - Madhuca - - - - - Payena - - - - - - Payena acuminata - - - - Symplocaceae - - - - - Symplocos - - - - - - Symplocos adenophylla - - - - Theaceae - - - - - Pyrenaria - - - - - - Pyrenaria serrata - - - Fabales - - - - Fabaceae - - - - - Archidendron - - - - - - Archidendron clypearia - - - - - Bauhinia - - - - - - Bauhinia kockiana - - - - - Caesalpinia - - - - - - Caesalpinia oppositifolia - - - - - Crudia - - - - - - Crudia reticulata - - - - - Dialium - - - - - Fordia - - - - - - Fordia brachybotrys - - - - - - Fordia splendidissima - - - - - Saraca - - - - - Sindora - - - - - - Sindora irpicina - - - - - Spatholobus - - - - - - Spatholobus hirsutus - - - - - - Spatholobus macropterus - - - - Polygalaceae - - - - - Xanthophyllum - - - - - - Xanthophyllum adenotus - - - - - - Xanthophyllum flavescens - - - Fagales - - - - Fagaceae - - - - - Lithocarpus - - - - - - Lithocarpus gracilis - - - - - Quercus - - - - - - Quercus argentata - - - Gentianales - - - - Apocynaceae - - - - - Kopsia - - - - Gentianaceae - - - - - Fagraea - - - - Loganiaceae - - - - - Strychnos - - - - - - Strychnos ignatii - - - - Rubiaceae - - - - - Diplospora - - - - - Ixora - - - - - - Ixora grandifolia - - - - - Lasianthus - - - - - - Lasianthus cyanocarpus - - - - - Ludekia - - - - - - Ludekia borneensis - - - - - Mussaenda - - - - - Nauclea - - - - - - Nauclea orientalis - - - - - Praravinia - - - - - - Praravinia suberosa - - - - - Psychotria - - - - - - Psychotria viridiflora - - - - - Spermacoce - - - - - Uncaria - - - - - - Uncaria cordata - - - - - - Uncaria lanosa - - - - - Urophyllum - - - - - - Urophyllum arboreum - - - - - - Urophyllum sandahanicum - - - Icacinales - - - - Icacinaceae - - - - - Phytocrene - - - - - - Phytocrene borneensis - - - - - Sarcostigma - - - - - - Sarcostigma paniculata - - - Lamiales - - - - Gesneriaceae - - - - - Cyrtandra - - - - Lamiaceae - - - - - Callicarpa - - - - - - Callicarpa longifolia - - - - - - Callicarpa pentandra - - - - - Sphenodesme - - - - - - Sphenodesme triflora - - - - - Vitex - - - - - - Vitex pinnata - - - - Oleaceae - - - - - Chionanthus - - - - - - Chionanthus pluriflorus - - - - - Jasminum - - - - - - Jasminum crassifolium
