Fig. 2a–cFrom: Canopy composition and site are indicative of mineral soil conditions in Patagonian mixed Nothofagus forestsInteractions corresponding to Tables 1 and 2. a Basal area (m2 ha−1), b Litterfall (t ha−1 year−1), c pH. Different letters and symbols indicate significant differences by Tukey test (p < 0.05): lower case for comparisons among forest types (Np mixed forests dominated by Nothofagus pumilio, M mixed forests with similar proportion of N. pumilio and N. betuloides, Nb mixed forests dominated by Nothofagus betuloides) at each site; symbols ▲ and ● for comparisons between locations (coast, mountain) at each forest type.
