Sample name: Krau Wildlife Reserve (fruit garden)

Reference: J. H. Moore, S. Sittimongkol, A. Campos-Arceiz, T. Sumpah, and M. P. Eichhorn. 2016. Fruit gardens enhance mammal diversity and biomass in a Southeast Asian rainforest. Biological Conservation 194:132-138 [ER 1755]

Habitat: tropical/subtropical moist broadleaf forest

Protection: wildlife protected area

Substrate: ground surface

Disturbance: agriculture

MAT: 25.8

MAP: 2017.0

Habitat comments: "Vegetation within the reserve predominantly consists of lowland dipterocarp forest (61%), hill dipterocarp forest (22.5%) and upper dipterocarp forest (9%) with minor components of secondary forest (1.1%) and cultivated/cleared land (0.6%)... Fruit gardens were identified by local guides as areas currently or previously cultivated for growing fruiting tree species for local consumption"
climate data are for Temerloh and are from Poore (1968, Journal of Ecology)

Life forms: carnivores, primates, rodents, ungulates, birds, lizards

Sites: 7

Sampling methods: no design, baited, automatic cameras

Sample size: 501 captures or sightings

Nets or traps: 24

Net or trap nights: 478

Camera type: digital

Cameras paired: no

Basal area status: not applicable

Sampling comments: seven "plots were surveyed over a two-month period using 24 HD Bushnell camera traps. Our aim was to obtain the equivalent of eight weeks of camera trapping per plot (56 days)... Fruit baits were deployed to increase capture rates"
"1024 camera trap nights" are reported for the two treatments combined; recorded figure is based on assuming equal effort across the 15 plots
site area is unclear because the sampling points are clustered within part of the reserve
