Knowledge on juvenile tree growth is crucial to understand how trees reach the canopy in tropical forests. However, long-term data on juvenile tree growth are usually unavailable. Annual tree rings provide growth information ...

Sustainable forestry requires accurate ecological information such as species composition, growth rates and recruitment dynamics. Tree growth rates are usually obtained through long-term periodic re-measurements of individual ...

Tree-rings are anatomical structures formed in the secondary xylem of wood plants. These structures delimit the growth cycles and dormancy as response to seasonal climate regimes. Since each ring correspond to one annual ...

Most subtropical forests in South America are located in regions with a marked seasonality in precipitation, which may induce the formation of annual bands in woody species. Due to the lack of precise information on tree-ring ...

In spite of the unquestionable monophyly of die Cerylinae subfamily, there are divergences in considering Megaceryle torquata in die genera Megaceryle or Ceryle. In order to address the question, here is a comparative ...

Relict tree species in the Andean mountains are important sources of information about climate variability and climate change. This study deals with dendroclimatology and growth patterns in Polylepis reticulata Hieron., ...

A set of chiral beta-tellurium amines and their selenium and sulfur-containing derivatives have been efficiently synthesized in good to excellent yields via the ring-opening reaction of chiral aziridines by chalcogen ...
