\begin{abstract}
All species must balance their allocation to growth, survival and
recruitment. Among trees, evolution has resulted in different strategies
of partitioning resources to these key demographic processes, i.e.
demographic trade-offs. It is unclear whether the same demographic
trade-offs structure tropical forests worldwide. Here, we used data from
13 large-scale and long-term tropical forest plots to estimate the
principal trade-offs in growth, survival, recruitment, and tree stature
at each site. For ten sites, two trade-offs appeared repeatedly. One
trade-off showed a negative relationship between growth and survival,
i.e. the well-known fast-slow continuum. The second trade-off
distinguished between tall-statured species and species with high
recruitment rates, i.e. a stature-recruitment trade-off. Thus, the
fast-slow continuum and tree stature are two independent dimensions
structuring most tropical tree communities. Our discovery of the
consistency of demographic trade-offs and strategies across forest types
in three continents substantially improves our ability to predict
tropical forest dynamics worldwide.%
