Cloud cover stratification across the island of Hawaiʻi, derived from data provided by the Hawaiian Climate Atlas. The black squares represent the locations of the evaluated blocks (a total of 240 blocks, each covering 100 hectares) within each cloud cover stratum (60 blocks allocated to each cloud cover stratum). Yellow stars indicate the spatial distribution of the sample blocks presented in Results.
