Figure 4

DCA diagrams for axes 1 and 2 with vector fitted environmental variables related to the three selected abundance ranges ( , , and ). Variables were fitted to the DCA axes by application of the envfit function with selection criteria | τ| ≥ 0.225. The length of the vectors indicates their degree of correlation. Sites are shown as black dots. Environmental variables are described in Table 2. DCA axes are scaled in SD units of compositional turnover.
