Maximum size distributions in tropical forest communities: relationships with rainfall and disturbance
The diversity and structure of communities are partly determined by how species partition resource gradients. Plant size is an important indicator of species position along the vertical light gradient in the vegetation. Here, we compared the size distribution of tree species in 44 Ghanaian tropical...
