Age and growth of Glycymeris longior (Sowerby, 1832) clam at the southern edge of its distribution (Argentine Sea)
(Springer Nature, 2020-01)
Even though Glycymeris longior is a clam widely distributed in the SW Atlantic Ocean, little is known about its biology and life history. The present study assessed the periodicity of the internal growth increments of G. ...
Age structure and growth in an unusual population of purple clams, Amiantis purpuratus (Lamarck, 1818) (Bivalvia; Veneridae), from Argentine Patagonia
(National Shellfisheries Association, 2004-12)
The purple clam, Amiantis purpuratus, is distributed in the southwest Atlantic between Vitoria (Brazil, 20º SL) and San Matías Gulf (Argentina, 41º SL). We studied the age structure and growth in its southernmost population, ...
Structural differentiation among annual shoots as related to growth dynamics in Luma apiculata trees (Myrtaceae)
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2018-12)
A close examination of axis differentiation is key to the understanding of plant architecture and its ecological consequences. The present study was aimed at evaluating the relationship between shoot size/structure and ...

Seasonality and growth rings in lianas of Bignoniaceae
(SPRINGER, 2010)
Lianas are one of the most important components of tropical forest, and yet one of the most poorly known organisms. Therefore, our paper addresses questions on the environmental and developmental aspects that influence the ...
Cumulative diameter growth and biological rotation age for seven tree species in the Cerrado biogeographical province of Bolivia
(Elsevier, 2013-03-15)
In this contribution we document the radial growth rates of seven tropical species largely used for timbers in the Bolivian Cerrado, the region with the largest wood production in Bolivia. Inter-annual variations in tree-ring ...
The intrinsic growth rate as a predictor of population viability under climate warming
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2013-11-01)
Lately, there has been interest in using the intrinsic growth rate (rm) to predict the effects of climate warming on ectotherm population viability. However, because rm is calculated using the Euler-Lotka equation, its ...
