The observed and predicted maximum forest AGB using ‘interaction only’ quantile GAM at \(\tau\) = 0.99 for forest inventory plots belonging to different bins of the surface of scaled topographic wetness index (STWI) and potential evapotranspiration (PET). The RMSE and Pearson correlation coefficient (r) compare observed and predicted values. The dots compare the observed and predicted maximum forest AGB for each bin, with RMSE estimated using the leave-one-bin-out method.
