Figure 2

Relative importance of functional diversity, forest dynamics and individual traits for individual tree survival under reference climate and future climate conditions (RCP 4.5). Panels correspond to alpine needle-leaved (A), mixed mountainous (B), mixed temperate (C) and temperate broad-leaved (D) forests. Left bars in each panel illustrate reference climate (no warming) and right bars future climate (RCP4.5). Colours indicate forest dynamics (grey), functional diversity (yellow) and individual functional traits (blue). Forest dynamics include the number of locally competing trees (> 5 m in height) and local biomass as a proxy for the successional status.
