Importance values for each stratum (a, b) and mean stem density (individuals/ha) by DBH size class (cm) (c, d) for Pinus spp., Quercus spp., pyrophytes, intermediates, and mesophytes at Hite Fork and Wall Fork. Only trees (>7 cm DBH) are shown here. Strata correspond to tall shrub (s1), tree subcanopy (t3), and tree canopy (t2). Importance values range between 0 and 100 and were calculated as the mean of relative basal area, relative density, and relative frequency. Error bars represent 1 standard deviation
