Extended Data Fig. 4: Alternative definition of stabilizing CNDD as the absolute change in mortality probability.
From: Latitudinal patterns in stabilizing density dependence of forest communities
a–c, Similar patterns to the main analysis are visible; that is, stronger CNDD for rare than for common species in the tropics (b,c) but not generally stronger tropical CNDD (a), but, in contrast to the main analysis, the interaction of species abundance and latitude was insignificant. See ‘Quantification of conspecific density dependence’ in Methods for details on the definition of CNDD. For details on the visualization in a and b,c, see Figs. 2 and 3, respectively. Estimates of the meta-regressions are shown in Extended Data Table 3.
