Distribution of disturbance agents, tree genera, and tree species traits across three global clusters of disturbance activity (cf. Table 1). Bubbles are scaled relative to the occurrence of the two most important a disturbance agents and b tree genera within each cluster. c Dominance [%] indicates the share of the single most prevalent tree species on the overall tree species composition, while conifers [%] indicates the respective share of all conifer species. Maximum tree height and wood density indicate a weighted trait distribution across landscapes in the respective disturbance activity clusters. Boxplots denote the median (center line) and interquartile range (box), with whiskers extending to three times the interquartile range and points indicating values outside this range. Test statistics and p-values are based on approximate Kruskal–Wallis tests with 9999 permutations. For further information on statistical analyses see Supplementary Table 2
