Table S1 Blomberg’s K for each leaf trait.
Table S2 Results of analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with leaf
traits (LCC, LDMC, LD, WSD, and LMA) as dependent variables, plant
height and diameter as covariates, and intertidal gradients and growth
forms as the factors. Values in bold indicate significant effects
(p < 0.05).
Figure S1 Relationships between leaf traits and plant size,
fitted by regression for shrubs and trees. The coefficients of
determination (R 2) and p are shown in
each panel. The trait abbreviations are provided in Table S1.
Figure S2 Relationships between leaf traits and plant size,
fitted by regression for low- and high-elevation intertidal zones. The
coefficients of determination (R 2) and p are shown in each panel. The trait abbreviations are provided in Table
S1.
