Dear Authors,
There are a few corrections necessary, before we can proceed with the publication of your manuscript. Please check carefully the figures and tables and the captions. In particular, I found the following problems:
Table 1: Information about geographic…. of the 26 sampling sites… K-value: phylogenetic signal values with smaller values indicating a weaker signal.
In the caption of Table 1, you do not need to give a definition for evaporation. Please remove the sentence: Evaporation: the change processof evaporating from a liquid to a vapor.
Table 3 last column, please revise and change to “Proportional occurence”, is that correct?
The text for the caption of Figure 1 is not clear, please revise.
Figure 1A, y-axis label, please change to “Proportion (%)”.
The resolution of Fig. 1A and B is not very good, please improve.
Caption of Figure 3, please revise: “… Average seed mass has a U-shape and declines with increasing longitude with lowest level at around 114 degrees. Average seed mass do not have significant relationships with phylogenetic diversity (p>0.05)….”. Please also correct x-axis labels in Fig. 3D, longitude values are different from A and B.
The text for the caption of Figure 6 is not clear, please revise.
Thank you & all the best,
Anja Rammig
