Methods and protocols used in the collection of this data package
Description:
Forest inventory sampling design: the study was conducted in all Mexico's forest ecosystems which are coniferous forest, broadleaf forests, coniferous-broadleaf forest, cloud mountain forest, tropical forest, tropical-dry forest, semiarid ecosystems, arid ecosystems, mangroves. The sampling design considered a total of 26,220 plots distributed across the Mexican territory during 2009-2014, however 9.5% of the total plots were categorized as inaccessible sites and another 5.1% were obtained from remote sensing data (CONAFOR, 2017). The number of sampled plots for each forest ecosystem were 2,606 for coniferous forests; 4,111 for coniferous-broadleaf; 3,249 for broadleaf forest; 483 for cloud mountain forest; 3,724 for tropical forest; 1,466 for tropical dry forests; 240 for arid zones; 1,334 for semiarid zones and 157 for mangrove forests. The dataset can be found at the official web page> https://snmf.cnf.gob.mx/datos-del-inventario/.
Instrument(s):Sampled plots are distributed across all land cover types, ecological stages, and land tenure (e.g., private, social, government). Plot distribution is accomplished through systematic, pre-stratified sampling with 5x5, 10x10 and 20x20 km spacing in temperate and tropical forests, dry and semiarid vegetation communities, and arid vegetation strata, respectively. The plot is considered a cluster design with 4 circular subplots, 3 of which are configured in a triangular array around a central subplot. Primary subplots, where trees with a diameter at breast height (dbh, 1.3 m above ground) ≥ 7.5 cm are measured, have a radius of 12.56 meters and are 400 m2 in area; spacing between adjacent primary subplot centers is 45.14 m.
