Fig. 5: Partial dependency values of tree mortality rate during the 2012-2016 drought to canopy structural attributes and environmental factors derived from random forest regression analyses.
From: Tree mortality during long-term droughts is lower in structurally complex forest stands
a Responses of tree mortality rate to tree height of all genera (represented by All) and each respective genus. Tree mortality rate within each forest stand was binned by tree height with an interval of 5 m. b Responses of tree mortality rate to CCTH of all genera and each respective genus. Tree mortality rate within each forest stand was binned by CCTH with an interval of 5%. c Responses of tree mortality rate to elevation of all genera and each respective genus. Tree mortality rate within each forest stand was binned by elevation with an interval of 250 m. d Responses of tree mortality rate to topographic wetness index of all genera and each respective genus. Tree mortality rate within each forest stand was binned by topographic wetness index with an interval of 0.5. e Responses of tree mortality rate to solar radiation of all genera and each respective genus. Tree mortality rate within each forest stand was binned by solar radiation with an interval of 200 Wh/m2.
