Statement
Seedling transects at the Cumberland Plain site was conducted in 2014. The seedlings were surveyed in 6 transects (1 m wide and 20 m long)) on the Gentry Transects. The start of the transects was staggered (transects 1 & 4 start at 0 m, transects 2 & 5 start at 15 m, transects 3 & 6 start at 30 m). All transects are orientated from the centre 1 m to the east. A 50 m tape measure was established along the Gentry Transects (running in an eastern direction) in the centre of the transect. Surveyors identified all seedlings (>0.1 m, >1.5 m height) within 1 m to the north. The position was recorded as the distance from the start of the transect, and the perpendicular distance along a 1 m rule. All seedlings were fitted with a numbered aluminium tag. The tag was attached to a stainless steel peg put into the ground approximately 5 cm west of the seedling. Seedling height, family, genus and species for all seedlings were measured and recorded. Species were identified by Drs Paul Rymer, Tony Haigh from WSU, and determined on-site by the botanical identification service at the Herbarium of NSW (Barbara Wiecek, and Andrew Orme).
