The roles of rainfall, soil properties, and species traits in flowering phenology along a savanna-seasonally dry tropical forest gradient
(2017-09-01)
We investigated flowering phenology in a semiarid macroclimate along an environmental gradient encompassing neotropical savanna, transition, and seasonally dry tropical forest (SDTF) areas in the Chapada Diamantina Mountains, ...
Hot spots, hot moments, and spatio-temporal controls on soil CO2 efflux in a water-limited ecosystem
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-10-01)
Soil CO2 efflux is the primary source of CO2 emissions from terrestrial ecosystems to the atmosphere. The rates of this flux vary in time and space producing hot moments (sudden temporal high fluxes) and hot spots (spatially ...
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 ...
Spatiotemporal heterogeneity of soil fertility in the Central Monte desert (Argentina)
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2009-10)
In arid environments, soil fertility exhibits a high degree of spatial and temporal heterogeneity, which results from high climatic variability seasonally and heterogeneous plant distribution. However, because most desert ...
