The dataset is provided in a single .xlsx file named "eucalyptus_growth_environment_data_V2.xlsx" and consists of fifteen sheets:

Codebook: This sheet details the index, values, and descriptions for each field within the dataset, providing a comprehensive guide to understanding the data structure.

ALL NODES: Contains measurements from all devices, totalling 102,916 data points. This sheet aggregates the data across all nodes.

GWD1 to GWD10: These subset sheets include measurements from individual nodes, labelled according to the abbreviation “Generic Wireless Dendrometer” followed by device IDs 1 through 10. Each sheet corresponds to a specific node, representing measurements from ten trees (or nodes).

Metadata: Provides detailed metadata for each node, including species, initial diameter, location, measurement frequency, battery specifications, and irrigation status. This information is essential for identifying and differentiating the nodes and their specific attributes.

Missing Data Intervals: Details gaps in the data stream, including start and end dates and times when data was not uploaded. It includes information on the total duration of each missing interval and the number of missing data points.

Missing Intervals Distribution: Offers a summary of missing data intervals and their distribution, providing insight into data gaps and reasons for missing data.

All nodes utilize LoRaWAN for data transmission. Please note that intermittent data gaps may occur due to connectivity issues between the gateway and the nodes, as well as maintenance activities or experimental procedures.

Software considerations: The provided R code named “Simple_Dendro_Imputation_and_Analysis.R” is a comprehensive analysis workflow that processes and analyses Eucalyptus growth and environmental data from the "eucalyptus_growth_environment_data_V2.xlsx" dataset. The script begins by loading necessary libraries, setting the working directory, and reading the data from the specified Excel sheet. It then combines date and time information into a unified DateTime format and performs data type conversions for relevant columns. The analysis focuses on a specified device, allowing for the selection of neighbouring devices for imputation of missing data. A loop checks for gaps in the time series and fills in missing intervals based on a defined threshold, followed by a function that imputes missing values using the average from nearby devices. Outliers are identified and managed through linear interpolation. The code further calculates vapor pressure metrics and applies temperature corrections to the dendrometer data. Finally, it saves the cleaned and processed data into a new Excel file while conducting dendrometer analysis using the dendRoAnalyst package, which includes visualizations and calculations of daily growth metrics and correlations with environmental factors such as vapour pressure deficit (VPD).
