Fig 3. Sensitivity of mortality to drought for all sites with available data.

Fig 3

(a) and (b) showed relationships between tree mortality metrics and MAP. (c) and (d) showed relationships between tree mortality metrics and SPEI. Dark-grey dots indicate droughts. The best-fit models for each drought index and mortality-rate metric are shown, with the 95% bootstrapped confidence intervals. MAP, mean annual precipitation; SPEI, standardized precipitation-evapotranspiration index. The pink ovals indicate the lower tree mortality rate for tropical rainforests.
