Summary

The leaf life span, leaf habit (evergreenness and deciduousness), and species diversity of trees were simulated by a cost-benefit model of leaf longevity (Kikuzawa 1991), using monthly mean temperature values and their decreasing rate with altitude with 1000 m of sites of different latitude and altitude in eastern Asia.
