Correlation between the drought impact on sapling mortality (x-axis) and annual rate of sapling population change over two census intervals: a) 1982–1990 and b) 1990–2015. Drought impact was measured as the difference in fitted mortality rate during the first minus the third interval for every species, so positive indicates species that suffered most during the drought. Population growth was also measured from fitted abundances. All species shown by gray points, and those with ≥50 individuals by blue. Solid lines are regressions: a) p<0.0001, r 2=0.082; b) p=0.01, r 2=0.026, both based only on those more abundant species
