Figure 1. Trait-abundance association with elevation. Changes
in species abundances across elevational gradients in contiguous forest
and fragments was modeled in relation to four functional traits.
Generalized linear mixed-effects models with negative binomial errors
and a zero-inflation component were used to model the relationships.
Points indicate observed values and lines show predictions at
10th (low), 50th (medium) and
90th (high) percentile of trait values. Note the log
scale for Y axis and differing ranges for contiguous forest and
fragments.
