Fig. 1From: Modeling sapling distribution over time using a functional predictor in a generalized additive modelPosition of adult trees (dbh ≥ 20 cm; red circles), small trees (10 ≤ dbh ≤ 20 cm; green dots) and number of saplings per quadrat (darker tones indicate larger number of saplings) of the six plots of the chronosequence in 2001. Size of adult trees is proportional to dbhBack to article page
