Variations of leaf traits of an alpine shrub Sieversia pentapetala along an altitudinal gradient and under a simulated environmental change [PDF]
P(論文)We investigated intraspecific variations of leaf traits such as number of leaves, leaf size, leaf mass per shoot, leaf mass per area (LMA) and leaf nitrogen concentration (leaf N), in a deciduous alpine dwarf shrub Sieversia pentapetala (L.) Greene (

Temporal variation and climate dependence of soil respiration and its components along a 3000 m altitudinal tropical forest gradient [PDF]
To simulate the effect of temperature on soil respiration rates, we translocated soil cores among four sites (3030, 1500, 1000, and 200 m asl) along an altitudinal tropical forest gradient in the Peruvian Andes, traversing a difference in mean annual ...

Altitudinal Gradient of Evapotranspiration in Tropical Highlands
Tropical highlands supply water for large cities in the Andes. Based on meteorological records from three weather stations in the paramo Chingaza, Colombia evapotranspiration (ET) is estimated based on the Penman-Monteith (P-M) approach to compare the altitudinal variation and assess the radiation and aerodynamic effects on the water losses. This study

Diversity of springtails (Hexapoda) according to a altitudinal gradient [PDF]
The objective of this work was to elevate gradient effect on diversity of Collembola, in a temperate forest on the northeast slope of Iztaccíhuatl Volcano, Mexico. Four expeditions were organized from November 2003 to August 2004, at four altitudes (2,753, 3,015, 3,250 and 3,687 m a.s.l.). In each site, air temperature, CO2 concentration, humidity, and
