Lineage
Fruit phenology and abundance was surveyed on the Robson Creek 25 ha plot from 2011 - 2017. Fruit phenology and abundance was surveyed across three transects (300 m in length and 5 m in width (2.5 m either side of the centre line). All ripe fruit on and above the ground within the confines of the transect was counted or estimated. Surveys were conducted in the last last week of each month. If a tagged individual was fruiting, the tag number was recorded. The percentage canopy cover was also recorded at each point in the transect where fruit was sampled.
