README for the database "Early post-fire woody regeneration in Pinus nigra forests in the Karst region.", consisting of the two datasets "natreg_Karst_plotwise" and "natreg_Karst_treewise" (https://researchdata.cab.unipd.it/id/eprint/1757).
Explanation of the variables name.

NATREG_KARST_PLOTWISE

plot
Univocal ID for each sampling plot.

latitude
(self explanatory)

longitude
(self explanatory)

lateral_rmse_m
Lateral root mean square error, in metres.

wgs84_elev_m
Ellipsoidal elevation (WGS84), in metres.

date
Date of sampling.

pc_phane
Percent cover of phanerophytes.

pc_chamae
Percent cover of chamaephytes.

pc_necro
Percent cover of necromass (wood pieces) with diameter <10 cm.

pc_rock
Percent cover of rock outcrops or gravel.

pc_soil
Percent cover of mineral soil.

pc_litter
Percent cover of leaf litter.

pc_dicot
Percent cover of dicotyledons.

pc_monoc
Percent cover of monocotyledons.

NATREG_KARST_TREEWISE

plot
Univocal ID for each sampling plot.

species
Woody natural regeneration species.

height_cm
Height of individuals, in centimeters. If of agamic origin, the height refers to the tallest shoot in the stump.

gamic
Gamic (seed) or agamic (shoot from stump/roots) origin.

quantity
Number of shoots in the stump. If of gamic orgin, 1. If the plot had no woody regeneration, 0.

estimate
In case of more than 10 shoots from one stump, in few cases the number of shoots was estimated ("yes"). Otherwise ("no") the number in quantity derives from an actual count.
