The spatial arrangement of trees in a tropical forest reflects the interplaybetween aggregating processes, like dispersal limitation, and negative feedbackthat induces effective repulsion among individuals. Monitoring thevariance-mean ratio for conspecific individuals along length-scales, we showthat the effect of negative feedback is dominant at short scales, whileaggregation characterizes the large-scale patterns. A comparison of differentspecies indicates, surprisingly, that both aggregation and negative feedbackscales are related to the overall abundance of the species. This suggests abottom-up control mechanism, in which the negative feedback dictates thedispersal kernel and the overall abundance.

Spatial patterns in the tropical forest reveal connections between negative feedback, aggregation and abundance
