Strong neutral spatial effects shape tree species distributions across life stages at multiple scales.

Traditionally, ecologists use lattice (regional summary) count data to simulate tree species distributions to explore species coexistence. However, no previous study has explicitly compared the difference between using lattice count and basal area data and analyzed species distributions at both indi...
