Overview

This dataset encompasses a re-analysis of data from Horn et al. (2018) to determine regional tree growth and survival response to nitrogen and sulfur deposition across the United States. Tree responses are matched with additional climate (temperature, precipitation), edaphic (soil pH), deposition (N and S deposition), and biotic covariates (tree deciduousness and mycorrhizal association). A full list of datasets and R code are available in Appendix S3 in the forthcoming peer-reviewed publication. Horn, Kevin J., et al. "Growth and survival relationships of 71 tree species with nitrogen and sulfur deposition across the conterminous US." PloS one 13.10 (2018): e0205296. For more information about the each file included, see "README_TreeCLA1_FFGC.pdf" in the supporting documents tab. A data dictionary is included with the each file as additional "README" or "meta" tabs in .xlsx documents and a forthcoming peer reviewed publication describes the methodologies. This dataset is associated with the following publication: Dalton, R.M., J.N. Miller, T. Greaver, R.D. Sabo, K.G. Austin, J.N. Phelan, R.Q. Thomas, and C.M. Clark. Regional variation in growth and survival responses to atmospheric nitrogen and sulfur deposition for 140 tree species across the United States. Frontiers in Forests and Global Change. Frontiers, Lausanne, SWITZERLAND, 7: 1426644, (2024).
