Fig. 3: Covariate balance between community forest management areas (CFM) and protected areas administered by Madagascar national parks (MNP) forest grid cells, before (red circles) and after (blue triangles) genetic matching.

Black dotted line indicates a standardized mean difference of 0.1 standard deviations. Vegetation zone codes: 1 = Eastern humid forest; 2 = Western deciduous forest; and 3 = Southern deciduous spiny forest, so higher values indicate drier forest types.
