Short summary
Reproductive phenology is an essential component of forest ecology and a valuable metric for assessing the impacts of climate change. We present 15 years of flowering and fruiting observations for Australian tropical rainforest tree species and analyse how reproductive phenology patterns change through time at both the species and community level. We find that reproductive phenology is influenced by plant functional traits, including seed dispersal syndrome.
