Rapid biological changes are expected to occur on tropical elevational gradients as species
migrate upslope or go extinct in the face of global warming. We established a series of 9 1 …

Although it is well known that riparian zones can contribute strongly to between-habitat beta
diversity, for most taxa it is not clear how far this 'zone'extends, and whether it corresponds to …

Although fine roots might account for 50% of the annual net primary productivity in moist
tropical forests, there are relatively few studies of fine-root dynamics in this biome. We …
