Fig 1.
Age structure of Quercus ilex recruits in the two precipitation levels, grouped in 10-year age-classes.
Fig 2.
Effect of intensity of past deforestation on the number of recruits of Quercus ilex per plot in each precipitation level.
The lines are the estimated models from the Poisson regression, (A) for saplings (recruits 15 years old or younger) and (B) for juveniles (recruits between 16 and 50 years old).

Parameter estimates from the best fitting Poisson regression models of the effect of precipitation level and intensity of past deforestation on the number of recruits of Quercus ilex per plot.

Model summaries of best logistic model (GLMM) for the association of recruits of Quercus ilex to nurse plants.
Table 3.
Estimates of the interaction parameter (β11, S3 Appendix) between the indicator of the presence of nurse plants at the microsite level and the plot-level variables.
