Phenological cycles in the Pantanal woody communities: Responses to climate and soil moisture seasonality

Fig 2. Soil moisture content fluctuation (%) in the upper 20 cm of soil across seven plant communities (A–D), alongside precipitation (mm), representing the hydroclimatic cycle from July 2017 to July 2018. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0316011.g002 Fig 3. Individuals by leaf fall strategy (%). Individuals were classified as deciduous, semideciduous, or evergreen on the basis of intervals of leaf loss. Individuals were classified as deciduous if they lost more than 90% of their leaves at least once a year. Individuals shedding more than 50% of their leaves and less than 90% of their leaves were classified as semideciduous, and evergreen individuals were those which maintained 50–100% of their crown throughout the year. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0316011.g003 PLOS ONE Phenological cycles in the Pantanal woody communities PLOS ONE | https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0316011 February 7, 2025 9 / 30
