Appendix A. Exampe figure detailing the calculation of climate tracking metrics for the contemporary data set using forest inventory and analysis data.
Fig. A1. Example case for determining climate tracking at the trailing edge, using Carpinus caroliniana. Procedure for the leading edge calculations are the converse, using all seedling and tree observations within 1° latitude south of the northernmost tree observation (as well as any seedling observations north of the northernmost tree observation).
