Description
These are data from 65 tree plots in Panama established over 1994-2014; 43 of the plots have been recensused, while 22 plots have just a single census. Details of census methods are described in Condit (1998) and Condit et al. (2013). The 65 plots here are mostly 1 ha in area, though several are 0.32 ha, one is 4 ha, and one is 6 ha. Those two larger censuses are the Sherman and Cocoli plots described in Condit et al. (2004). A companion data archive includes all data from the Barro Colorado 50-ha plot (Condit et al. 2019).

The PIs would like to be informed of papers resulting from the marena plot data. Depending on our level of interest and how much a paper depends on the plots, co-authorship might be requested.
