From: Severe and frequent extreme weather events undermine economic adaptation gains of tree-species diversification

Figure 4

Diversification strategies under economically optimal stand-type allocation. Indicators for \(\alpha\) (a) \(\beta\) (b) \(\gamma\) (c), structural and functional diversity (d) of the optimal stand-type allocation, comparing bottom-up and top-down planning under extreme-event scenarios defined by a damage probability (horizontal axis). We show only the results for increasing damage probabilities due to more extreme weather events. The results for larger events were similar (Supplementary Fig. A11). Each point in (a) represents one of the 24 planning units, and in (b), one pair of planning units. (c,d) refer to the entire enterprise as aggregated planning units. Bray Curtis dissimilarity index (b) describes \(\beta\)-diversity; a value of 0 indicates that the stand-type composition of two planning units is identical, while a value close to 1 indicates high dissimilarity.
