Splits are determined by their contribution to the overall model and reduce predictive error. The longer the branches in the tree, the greater the deviance explained. (a) Rc as response variable; (b) TSSC as response variable; (c) TSSL as response variable; (d) TOCL as response variable. Abbreviations of the variables as shows in Table 1.
