Predicted contribution of annual ACS changes in three contrasted scenarios of pre-logging forest composition: Conservatists, Pioneers and Pioneers++ communities are defined with standardized covariates T WD , T SEED , T SLA and TDBH95 respectively set to [2,−2,−4], [2,−2,−4], [−2,2,4] and [2,−2,−4]. Pioneers++ refer to a true pioneer community (very low wood density, very low seed mass, very high specific leaf area and very low maximal stature). The white line is the net annual ACS recovery, i.e. the sum of all annual ACS changes: survivors’ ACS growth Sg and loss Sl, new recruits’ ACS Rr and recruits’ ACS growth Rg and loss Rl. Dotted lines are out of the calibration period (0–30 year). Maximum-likelihood predictions for ACS stocks (bottom-right) are projected within their credibility intervals (areas with higher levels of transparency
