Tropical montane cloud forest distribution.
A–C: Distribution (relative occurrence rate) of tropical montane cloud forests estimated using an inhomogeneous point process model [47] of 529 cloud forest locations (black points) [48] with the new cloud metrics and elevation [7] (see Materials and Methods and S4 Table for modeling details). Panels show predictions for (A) South and Central America, (B) Africa, and (C) Southeast Asia/Australia. All panels share the color bar shown in panel C.
