Fig. 5

Relationships of L-D, S-D, and R-D scaling exponents with climate indices (PET, MTCM, and MI). Regression lines were given for relationships scaling exponents that were significant (p < 0.05). Green circles and regression lines represent trees in secondary forests, pink circles and regression lines represent trees in primary forests, and brown circles and regression lines represent trees in plantations. Black regression lines are given when relationships at overall level were significant
