Plots were placed close together two and two in five sites with vegetation characteristic for the area.
All trees at least 0.5 cm dbh were measured in cm to nearest integer, and height was estimated in m to nearest integer. All smaller individuals were counted as regeneration. All individuals were identified to species. </para></abstract><keywordSet><keyword>woody plants</keyword></keywordSet><intellectualRights><para>Obtain permission from data set owner(s)</para></intellectualRights><coverage><geographicCoverage><geographicDescription>Fatala Forest, Saloum, Senegal</geographicDescription><boundingCoordinates><westBoundingCoordinate>-16.4497</westBoundingCoordinate><eastBoundingCoordinate>-16.4497</eastBoundingCoordinate><northBoundingCoordinate>13.65</northBoundingCoordinate><southBoundingCoordinate>13.65</southBoundingCoordinate></boundingCoordinates></geographicCoverage><temporalCoverage><rangeOfDates><beginDate><calendarDate>1991</calendarDate></beginDate><endDate><calendarDate>1994</calendarDate></endDate></rangeOfDates></temporalCoverage></coverage><contact><individualName><givenName>Anne Mette</givenName><surName>Lykke</surName></individualName><organizationName>Aarhus University</organizationName><address><deliveryPoint>Vejls&#248;vej 25</deliveryPoint><city>Silkeborg</city><postalCode>8660</postalCode><country>Denmark</country></address><electronicMailAddress>aml@dmu.dk</electronicMailAddress></contact><methods><methodStep><description><section>
