The dataset comprises measurements of all stems (dead or alive) >10cm dbh in the “New” Core 1-ha plot at the Warra Supersite done according to the Supersite vegetation monitoring protocols (Australian Supersites Network, 2015). The dataset includes measurements of location within the core 1-ha plot, plant taxon, diameter, status (dead or alive). Height measurements are derived from a variety of methods including direct measurement and predictions based on height – diameter regressions from a measured sample of trees. The data came from two measurement campaigns. The first done in June 2012 was in the original Core 1ha plot at Warra. The second done in October 2013 was in a 0.6 ha (60 x 100m) extension to the western boundary of the original 1-ha plot. The 0.6 ha extension was installed to allow the creation of a “new” 1 ha Core plot in undisturbed forest within the footprint of the Warra Flux Tower. The “new” 1-ha Core Plot dataset comprises the 0.6 ha extension and the western-most 0.4 ha (40 x 100m) of the original plot. The dataset updates an earlier version (Vascular Plant Data, Direct Measure of Stems, Warra Tall Eucalypt SuperSite, 2013-2015) by including the measurements for two Eucalyptus obliqua trees that had not been measured in the initial measurement campaigns.
