Open habitats such as grasslands occupy< 5% of the Amazon and are currently grouped
under the broad term Amazonian savanna, covering an area of c. 267 000 km2, mostly in …

An important component in improving the quality of forests is to study the interference
intensity of forest fires, in order to describe the intensity of the forest fire and the vegetation …

The ability of plant species to adjust key functional traits through intraspecific variation may
determine their success in persisting on our planet in the future, especially in unstable …

We tested the hypothesis that topographic/soil gradient and ecological succession are the
main factors driving the high tree diversity in a protected area in Amazonia/Cerrado …

Since the dawn of civilization, it has been understood what natural resources were and their
importance for the survival and development of humanity. The environmental history, until …

Climate, topography and edaphic characteristics are important factors for plant community
dynamics when considering spatial and temporal scales. Efforts on vegetation dynamics in …

The Cerrado complex is covered by twelve physiognomies characterized by a gradient of
grassland, savanna and forest formations. We assessed the recruitment (RI) and mortality …

Fire is a major driver of forest degradation and biodiversity loss in the Amazon. Although
some studies have evaluated the impacts of fire on forest structure and diversity …

Forest fire frequency in Nepal has increased in recent years. Field-level assessments of the
impacts of fire on the plant community assemblage and postfire recovery dynamics across …

Comparative studies of tree dynamics can be useful for the conservation of forest fragments
in the Cerrado. We tested if the successional dynamics in fragments of semideciduous forest …
