Table 6 Critical values (i.e., values at which the tangent to the response curve is horizontal) for the variables with U-shaped and bell-shaped response curves. When the response is strictly decreasing or increasing, no values are provided because no inflexion point exists. Critical values have the same units as the variables (see Table 2 in the main text)

From: Climate change-induced background tree mortality is exacerbated towards the warm limits of the species ranges
