Measurements of tree motion in the wind collated from multiple studies undertaken in the UK, Puerto Rico and Australia between 1987-2015

This dataset contains high resolution measurements of tree motion in response to wind at six sites. The data was collected using sensors mounted directly onto the tree trunk. The sites are: Rivox, Kershope, Kyloe and Clocaenog in the UK. Guanica in Puerto Rico and six open-grown trees from Australia.

Statement
The data in Rivox were collected using displacement sensors, all other sites used strain gauges. In the four UK sites, wind data were collected at 10 Hz using a 3D sonic anemometer on a tower at canopy height. Wind data for the trees in Australia were collected using a cup anemometer. No wind data was collected in Guanica. No pre-processing, filtering or quality control has been conducted on these data. They have only been downloaded from the data loggers and merged into continuous time-series. The data were used to estimate wind damage risk and no additional processing was needed.
