Figure 9

Tree size distribution in experimental plots after two surveys, 1998–2000 and 2008. The models were fitted to the mean number of trees in each DBH class averaged over all 18 plots. The fitted models are (i) = 116.6*ex , (ii) = 92.9*ex T: Number of trees in a given dbh class. : mean DBH. Different letters above/below the indicate significant differences (ANOVA: df = 1,34; ) in mean number of trees within each DBH class between two surveys.
