Description: This data package contains lab-based measurements of bark water vapor conductance from saplings in seasonally dry forests in the Parque Natural Metropolitano and Eugene Eisenmann Reserve, and a shadehouse in Panama. A total of 14 populations of 8 tree species were measured. The goal was to test whether bark water vapour conductance (gbark) was associated with values of stem water deficit that were published previously. In the attached zip file are two Excel metadata files with site information and descriptions of the CSV datasets included, as well as a PDF file "Sapling bvc metadata description," which describes the methods and protocol thoroughly. This data is associated with the publication Wolfe Brett T. 2020Bark water vapour conductance is associated with drought performance in tropical treesBiol. Lett.1620200263 https://doi.org/10.1098/rsbl.2020.0263.
