OLD-GROWTH TEMPERATE RAINFORESTS OF SOUTH AMERICA: CONSERVATION, PLANT–ANIMAL INTERACTIONS, AND BASELINE BIOGEOCHEMICAL PROCESSES
(SPRINGER, 2009)
A structural and compositional definition of old-growth forest is presented, which places emphasis on the lack of recurrent human impact, the presence of a shade-tolerant canopy with emergent pioneers, and a patch area ...
Present and prospects for multi-aged silviculture in Chilean temperate forests: targeting secondary forests in transition and partially harvested old-growth forests
(Frontiers Media, 2022)
Valdivian Temperate Rainforests in Chile have a global conservation value, but nowadays many correspond to secondary forests following regeneration in agricultural and burned lands, and to high-graded old-growth due to ...
Increased water use efficiency but contrasting tree growth patterns in Fitzroya cupressoides forests of southern Chile during recent decades
(American Geophysical Union, 2015)
Little is known about how old-growth and massive forests are responding to environmental change. We investigated tree-ring growth and carbon isotopes of the long-lived and high biomass Fitzroya cupressoides in two stands ...
Disturbance history and dynamics of an old-growth nothofagus forest in Southern Patagonia
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2020-01)
The identification of disturbance events using disturbance chronologies has become a valuable tool in reconstructing disturbance history in temperate forests worldwide; yet detailed reconstructions of disturbance history ...
