Dataset contains 863 observations, about of total soluble carbohydrate, starch, and non structural carbohydrates concentrations per mass unit and per volume unit, in three tissues in early summer and early autumn 6-8 adult trees of different species at three elevations of altitudinal gradients sampled in four locations of Chile and Spain.
data(carbohtrees)Contains 16 variables, as follows:
