Disentangling the environmental heterogeneity, floristic distinctiveness and current threats of tropical dry forests in Colombia
(2018)
Tropical dry forests (TDFs) have been defined as a single biome occurring mostly in the lowlands where there is a marked period of drought during the year. In the Neotropics, dry forests occur across contrasting biogeographical ...
Testing Forest Biodiversity Indicators by Assessing Anthropogenic Impacts along Disturbance Gradients
