fiona1980Description
Oranging of leaves, lichens present in canopy. Hydrology reasonably normal for alluvial floodplain. Current surface water depth in wetland area around trees approx. 10 cm.
Trees are located on slightly raised mounds so no inundated at time of observation. Not grazed by domestic stock, but the area has historically been grazed. Current grazing impacts for wetland whole are feral goats and pigs. No obvious signs of pest animal impacts on trunk/bark. The wider wetland area contains healthy trees and other trees with varying proportions of orange-brown leaves.
