Since 1988 we have used 0.042m2 traps (n = 264 traps, collections once per year in May before red maple seed fall. Litter collection was dropped because the volume was too great to effectively sort and measure. Seed collection was maintained because seed production relates well to tree recruitment and small mammal abundance.Litter TrapsCSV file, 1983-1990 seed collection data from 40 litter traps in the research area.VMC.1217.2440mySQL/femc/data/archive/project/hrfseeds/dataset/littertraps1983-05-011990-12-31BLOCKBLOCKGrid block in study areatextCOUNTCOUNTNo description for this attributeintno dataFIASPFIASPFIA species codetextSPECSPECHRF species codetextYEARYEARNo description for this attributedateYYYY
