The Consequences of Precipitation Seasonality for Mediterranean-Ecosystem Vegetation of South Africa
Fig 5
Correlation between base saturation (BS) and (A) the average annual precipitation (MAP) and (B) water availability measured as the average of monthly precipitation—potential evapotranspiration (PET) of each vegetation type (Fynbos separated into strandveld, renosterveld and fynbos).
The vegetation types are indicated by codes (see Table 1). The coefficient of determination (r2) is shown for significant relationships (P < 0.05). Points and error bars indicate mean ± SE (for n see Table 1) and the grey bands indicate the 95% confidence limits.
