Effect of Disturbance Regimes on Spatial Patterns of Tree Species in Three Sites in a Tropical Evergreen Forest in Vietnam

Figure 9

Spatial correlations among the five most abundant tree species are shown by the bivariate mark-correlation functions. The observed patterns (dark line) that lie beyond the confidence envelopes (grey lines) indicate significant departures from the null models of independent marks.
