Plots span mature white pine–hemlock, upland oak, and mixed hardwood stands in western and eastern Connecticut. Collectively they document how uneven-aged management, hemlock woolly adelgid, and gypsy moth defoliation reshape forest composition and productivity over 60+ years.Blue Ribbon Forest InventoryWardJeffreyBarskyJoseph P.DonisvitchSorenforest managementforest inventorysilvicultural treatmentstreeData1994-06-01Long-format repeated measurements (one row per tree-year): diameter, crown class, status, etc.Z1875_4140_X0QU4PVMC.1875.4140mySQLhttps://www.uvm.edu/femc/data/archive/project/blue-ribbon-forest-inventory/dataset/treedatabfc_defectbfc_defecttextcc_desccc_desctextcc_rawcc_rawtextcc_stdcc_stdtextcfc_defectcfc_defecttextcommon_namecommon_nametextdatasetdatasettextdbh_indbh_indecimaldbh_mmdbh_mmdecimaldbh_outlierdbh_outliertextdefoliation_pctdefoliation_pcttextdsh_mmdsh_mmdecimalfol_transp_pctfol_transp_pcttextgradegradedecimalheight_blc_ftheight_blc_ftdecimalheight_bol_ftheight_bol_ftdecimalheight_pulp_ftheight_pulp_fttextheight_saw_ftheight_saw_ftdecimalheight_tot_ftheight_tot_ftdecimallatin_namelatin_nametextlcr_pctlcr_pctdecimalmgmt_statusmgmt_statustextnorm_live_crownnorm_live_crowntextnotesnotestextobs_typeobs_typetextspecies_codespecies_codedecimalstatusstatustextstatus_detailstatus_detailtexttreeidtreeidtextyearyearint
