  1. Note: Model-4 is the multiple regressions of plant nutrients against MAT, MAP, soil C, soil N, and soil P. Model-5 is the multiple regressions of plant nutrients against MAT, MAP, soil C, soil N, soil P, and vegetation type. Model-6 is the multiple regressions of plant nutrients against MAT, MAP, soil C, soil N, soil P, and soil type. Model-6 was not performed for the plant N below 2350 m due to the soil type was same below the altitude.
