Over fifty permanent plots (mostly 0.25 ha) have been set up, and there is an extensive trail system of 15 km within the main 400 hectare study site.

Zoological research is centred on understanding the ecology and systematics of the hybrid gibbons (Hylobates muelleri) found at the study site, but has also focussed on other large mammals as well, including birds, bats and fish.
