Mean standard deviation of wood density estimates at different taxonomic levels

Source: R/data_documentation.R
sd_10.Rd

This dataset gives the mean standard deviation of wood density values of the wdData dataset at different taxonomical levels only considering taxa having more than 10 different values. This dataset is used in the function getWoodDensity() to associate at the appropriate taxonomic level a mean error to wood density estimate.

Usage

data("sd_10")

Format

A data frame with 3 observations on the following 2 variables:

  • taxo: Character vector with the different taxonomical levels (family, genus, species)

  • sd: Numeric vector giving the mean standard deviation of wood density values

Details

This dataset is used in the function getWoodDensity().
