Appendix C. Table showing percent cover of tree species in each forest type cluster.
Table C1. Percent cover of each tree species in each forest class, averaged over the number of sites in each class. Classes were produced by Ward clustering on Hellinger-transformed percent-cover of each tree species in each plot (n = 125).
