Extended Data Fig. 1

In the top row, canopy greenness is characterized using the two band Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI2), with each line representing a year between 2000 and 2018. For stem growth, each line represents the average growth over one year, as modeled based on a five-parameter logistic growth model to dendrometer band data. Dashed lines represent modeled DBH change which fell outside of the median DOY where predicted starting and ending DBHs were reached. Solid lines represent DBH change attributable to stem growth.
