Competition influences tree growth, but not mortality, across environmental gradients in Amazonia and tropical Africa

Competition among trees is an important driver of community structure and dynamics in tropical forests. Neighboring trees may impact an individual tree’s growth rate and probability of mortality, but large‐scale geographic and environmental variation in these competitive effects has yet to be evalua...
