For each forest stand, the lowest DIC of the five models has been subtracted from all DICs, so that the DIC-minimal model (highlighted in italics) has a ΔDIC equal to 0. Model NC, no competition; Model SDC, symmetric density-dependent competition; Model SSC, symmetric size-dependent competition; Model ADC, asymmetric density-dependent competition; Model ASC, asymmetric size-dependent competition
