This paper developed a transition model not for the population of the plant, but for a population of patches occupied by the plant. Thus the stages are not life cycle stages, the transitions do not have the same interpretations as do transitions among life cycle stages, and demographic analyses describe spatial spread, not dynamics of numbers.
This population is locally endangered. GPS coordinates are only approximated, not accurate
Transition from seed to seedling was calculated by the survivors after one year sown beneath the canopy-Predators non-excluded
Transition from small adults to large adults was 0.41. Because of two high surival rate and comparable values in the other martrices it's certainly a typo, so that we coreccted 0.41 into 0.041

vegetative and dormant in one stage (stage 5 - Mat.veg.)
Vegetative reprodution and seed bank not taken into account; only population 4 was used for studying the population structure
Whole population: Includes individuals under the closed canopy and gaps
Whole-population model: Treating the individuals both in gaps and in shaded conditions together
Without fences; the GPS coordinates were approximated to the closest geographic location described in the reference. Most of the populations in this study are under high risk of local extinction, and thus the exact GPS coordinates were not public. For further information please contact the authors of the book.
Wrt. the lac of reproductive info so far
