Heights of new recruits for 69 Barro Colorado Island tree species for the period 1995-2011.

S. Joseph Wright and Andrés Hernández

All woody seedlings (with no lower size threshold) were measured annually in 600 1-m2 seedling plots from 1994 through 2011. These plots are located 2 m from three sides of each of the 200 0.5-m2 seed traps in the Barro Colorado Island 50 ha forest dynamics plot (see Wright et al., 2005 for more information)
.
The dataset contains seedlings heights for recruits when they first occur in the census, for the period 1995-2011.
