Relationships between Aspidosperma tomentosum tree growth and San Javier climate from January of the previous growing season to April of the current growing season. Correlations greater than r = 0.32 (dotted lines) are statistically significant (p < 0.05; period 1979–2015). The current growing season of A. tomentosum is highlighted. For comparison, the correlation functions of Schinopsis brasiliensis (r > 0.25 statistically significant at p < 0.05, 1943–2012) in San Miguel de Velasco and Centrolobium microchaete (r > 0.25 statistically significant at p < 0.05, 1943–2011) in Concepción, both localities at the dry Chiquitano forest in Bolivia are shown (Lopez and Villalba 2011; Lopez and Villalba, 2016a, b)
