Extended Data Fig. 1: Distribution of stabilizing CNDD calculated over species-site-specific interquantile ranges in conspecific density.
From: Latitudinal patterns in stabilizing density dependence of forest communities
Besides the frequency distribution of species-site-specific estimates, the figure indicates the global average assessed through meta-regression with random intercepts for sites and species in sites (red diamond with 95% CI) and the interquantile range of the estimates. Note that 1% of the CNDD estimates are outside the limits of the x axis. Stabilizing CNDD is defined as the relative change (in %) in annual mortality probability (relative average marginal effect; rAME) induced by changing conspecific density from the first to the third quantile of observed conspecific densities per species while keeping total densities constant.
