Domain:
enum
5. EXPBLOCK
Definition:
Experimental block code system used internally on LTEP data sheets and in database entry
Domain:
enum
6. EXPBLOCK_NAME
Definition:

enum
11. XCOORD
Definition:
Grid point X-coordinate (meters along x-axis from SW tree plot corner)
Units:
meters
Domain:
range (minimum = 0. maximum = 150.)
12. YCOORD

13. TREEPLOTNO_NOM
Definition:
Nominal pretreatment tree plot code; these codes (A-E) were used in 1992 (Blocks 1, 2, 3) and a few times in 1995 (three tree plots within Block B (codes 2, 4, 5)) to identify initial tree plot location within experimental unit (EXPUNIT).
Domain:
enum
14. TREEPLOTNO_PERM
Definition:
Permanent tree plot code; used in 1995 and beyond to identify permanent tree plot location within experimental unit (EXPUNIT). Plot codes were changed to numbers (1-5) in subsequent years but not all plots were included in future surveys.
