    File containing the information on parameters of the 5521 National forest inventory sites recorded during the NFI2 and NFI4. CLNR = Number of site in the National Forest Inventory INVNR = Information on which National Forest Inventory Elevation = Elevation above sea level Perc_Conifers = Proportional contribution of Conifer species to the total basal area of a site DominantTreeSp = Dominant tree taxa of a site as defined by maximum basal area contribution DMGTYP = Type of damage observed between NFI2 and NFI4 (up to four observations possible) DMGYEAR = In case a DMGTYPE event was observed here is the corresponding year marked. BioReg = Biogeographic region of the site Ggrob = NaiS site type (Potential natural forest vegetation of a site) DisturbanceType = Type of disturbance recorded on the site between NFI2 and NFI4.
