Table S1. Vegetation descriptions with (mean) canopy characteristics. Condition (Cond.) is given as a scale where 0 is parkland cleared, 1 poor and 5 excellent.
Canopy cover (Fc), foliage cover (Ff) and LAI are then calculated for each canopy photograph. Calculations are given as LAI=FcInv(1-Ff/Fc)/k, (k is assumed to be
0.5), Fc =1-Gl/Pixt, Ff =1-Gt/Pixt. Pixt refers to the total number of pixels in a photograph. GI refers to the total number of pixels in large gaps in canopy (greater
than 1%) and Gt figures to the number of pixels in all gaps in canopy cover.
