Flowcharts describing our two mechanisms. Direct effects of EAB-caused ash decline (solid arrows) and indirect effects (dashed arrows). Arrows with “+”represent a positive effect on the strata and with “−” indicate a negative effect. Relative growth rates (RGRs) represent forest layer growth (2012–2014) and predictor variables represent size (2012). M1 mechanism 1, M2 mechanism 2, pi-pv predictions, BA basal area, RGR relative growth rate
