Fig. 4

Cumulative abundance of regenerating tree species (trees<6cm) in 40 initial random subplots in the core zone (a, 133 species), buffer zone (b, 130 species), and restoration zone (c, 80 species). The ordinate represents the cumulative percentage of individuals, and the abscissa represents the abundance rank of species, from most abundant (left) to rarest (right). The rank abundance of the three target species is indicated. Note, there were no regenerating F. hodginsii trees in the buffer zone (b), and no regenerating A. spectabilis trees in the restoration zone (c)
