| Dataset Description (Abstract): | Dataset associated with paper Fuentes-Montemayor E, Park KJ, Cordts K & Watts K (2022) "The long-term development of temperate woodland creation sites: from tree saplings to mature woodlands" Forestry: 95(1), 28-37. Dataset contains information on size, age, development stage, and vegetation structural attributes of 106 woodland creation sites and 27 ancient woodland sites in England and Scotland, which form part of the Woodland creation and Ecological Networks project (WrEN; http://wren-project.com/). Vegetation structural attributes were quantified from field surveys along an edge-to-interior transect in each woodland in the summers of 2013 and 2014. |
| Dataset Description (TOC): | Dataset contains information on size, age, development stage, and vegetation structural attributes of 106 woodland creation sites and 27 ancient woodland sites in England and Scotland, which form part of the Woodland creation and Ecological Networks project (WrEN; http://wren-project.com/). Vegetation structural attributes include: tree species richness, tree density, tree DBH (mean), tree DBH (st dev), understorey cover (Domin scale), canopy cover (%) and coarse woody debris (index ranging 1-3).
