Extended Data Fig. 7: Change of stand-level basal area per hectare (BA) over time.
From: Tropical tree mortality has increased with rising atmospheric water stress
Change of BA per forest plot between 1971 and 2019 (a). Each circle is a plot BA on the year beginning a census period. The smooth curve and shaded area are the mean and 95% confidence interval of a generalised additive model (GAM), showing a decrease in plot BA across plots, and within most plots. The circle colour is proportional to the BA value (yellow to blue for low to high BA).
