Download scientific diagram | Second set of dimensions of treeline spatial pattern: changes in tree stature. (a) Examples of treeline ecotones patterns in the vertical cross section. All treelines shown here are discrete in terms of their 2‐D pattern (Fig. 1) and vary in their tree stature pattern only. (b) The two dimensions (axes) that define the cross‐section pattern of tree stature. The terms in the graphs denote the position of different treeline types at the far ends of the axes. from publication: A global framework for linking alpine‐treeline ecotone patterns to underlying processes | Globally, treeline ecotones vary from abrupt lines to extended zones of increasingly small, stunted and/or dispersed trees. These spatial patterns contain information about the processes that control treeline dynamics.
