Ecology Letters (2011) 14: 939–947 Abstract Tropical rain forests play a dominant role in
global biosphere‐atmosphere CO2 exchange. Although climate and nutrient availability …

The allocation of the net primary productivity (NPP) of an ecosystem between canopy,
woody tissue and fine roots is an important descriptor of the functioning of that ecosystem …

Forest age, which is affected by stand‐replacing ecosystem disturbances (such as forest
fires, harvesting, or insects), plays a distinguishing role in determining the distribution of …

Information on net primary production in tropical forests is needed for the development of
realistic global carbon budgets, for projecting how these ecosystems will be affected by …

En este estudio se describe la estructura, la composición florística y los patrones de
diversidad de la selva baja caducifolia del Cerro Verde, localizado en Nizanda (Istmo de …

Allometric equations were developed and applied to forest inventory data to estimate
biomass and carbon stocks for temperate species and forests of Durango and Chihuahua …

Seasonally dry tropical forests (SDTFs) are globally extensive but understudied, especially
from a biogeochemical perspective. Historically, much of the land covered by SDTF has …

Though seasonally dry tropical forests are equally as important to global biodiversity as
tropical rainforests, and are one of the most representative and highly endangered …

Understanding why there are so many kinds of tropical trees requires learning, not only how
tree species coexist, but what factors drive tree speciation and what governs a tree clade's …
