====================================================================
While I was procrastinating I decided to look up how many trees I
have measured during my time doing ecology. Specifically I wanted
to know how many trees I had hugged while measuring their trunk
diameter with a DBH tape. So I sifted through my old spreadsheets
and added up the numbers, it wasn't that difficult, really.
So below is a table of all the trees I've measured, separated by
country:
Country Trees measured
-------------------------- ----------------
Angola (2018) 2252
Republic of Congo (2017) 2161
Brazil (2016) 189
Peru (2015) 1093
Total 5695
I think 5695 trees is quite a lot! I'll have to take a picture with
the 6000th tree.
