Periodicidade do crescimento de espécies arbóreas da Floresta Estacional Semidecidual no Sul do Brasil
(2016-03-01)
Although seasonality is less evident in the tropics than in temperate ones, many tropical species present rhythmic growth. The stem circumference growth (SCG) evaluation will provide information on the development of tree ...
Atmospheric versus vegetation controls of Amazonian tropical rain forest evapotranspiration: Are the wet and seasonally dry rain forests any different?
(AMER GEOPHYSICAL UNION, 2010)
This study analyzes evapotranspiration data for three wet and two seasonally dry rain forest sites in Amazonia. The main environmental (net radiation, vapor pressure deficit, and aerodynamic conductance) and vegetation ...
Seasonal variation in body size of tropical anuran amphibians
(2010-12-01)
Most anurans are considered short lived reproducing only once, with adult size being an important factor contributing to mating success. We sampled anurans with 30 pitfall traps in three forest patches of the northwestern ...
The Caatinga Orchestra: Acoustic indices track temporal changes in a seasonally dry tropical forest
(2021-10-01)
Advances in technologies for data acquisition, storage and analysis have boosted Acoustic Ecology studies, but protocols are still lacking. There is a need of more research to understand which methodologies can be applied ...
Forest Structure, Wood Standing Stock, and Tree Biomass in Different Restoration Systems in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest
(Mdpi, 2019-07-01)
Reliable estimates of tree growth and wood yield are fundamental to support the management of restored forests and better reconcile the objectives of recovering biodiversity with the provision of ecosystem services. In ...
Corticolous cyanobacteria from tropical forest remnants in northwestern São Paulo State, Brazil
(2012-01-01)
Cyanobacteria are common in aquatic environments but are also well-adapted to terrestrial habitats where they are represented by a diversified flora. The present study aimed to contribute to our taxonomic knowledge of ...
Spatio-temporal patterns of throughfall and solute deposition in an open tropical rain forest
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2008)
The brief interaction of precipitation with a forest canopy can create a high spatial variability of both throughfall and solute deposition. We hypothesized that (i) the variability in natural forest systems is high but ...
Forest natural regeneration and biomass production after slash and burn in a seasonally dry forest in the Southern Brazilian Amazon
(Elsevier B.V., 2011-05-01)
This study estimates the aboveground biomass accumulation after forest clearing and slash burning and describes the structure and successional development of the secondary forest in the seasonally dry southern Amazon. The ...
Forest destructuring as revealed by the temporal dynamics of fundamental species - Case study of Santa Genebra Forest in Brazil
(Elsevier Science BvAmsterdamHolanda, 2014)
