NECROMASS PRODUCTION: STUDIES IN UNDISTURBED AND LOGGED AMAZON FORESTS [PDF]
, 2008 Necromass stocks account for up to 20% of carbon stored in tropical forests and have been estimated to be 14–19% of the annual aboveground carbon flux. Both stocks and fluxes of necromass are infrequently measured. In this study, we directly measured the

Detected Shifts Towards Drought‐Adaptive Strategies in the Amazon Forest Over the Last Four Decades
Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 2, February 2026.Amazon forests are facing hotter, drier conditions, and we used 40 years of satellite data to look for early signs of ecological change. Combining satellite observations with leaf measurements from more than 3000 trees, we show that many forests now show smaller dry‐season fluctuations in canopy colour—especially in the southern and eastern Amazon ...

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 1992-2009, February 2026.Summary Drying and drought in tropical forests, which have some of the highest net primary productivity on Earth, are likely to alter root dynamics, ecosystem function, and carbon (C) storage. We used a chronic drying experiment in four lowland Panamanian forests to investigate whether soil drying shifts tropical forest root production from surface to ...

The frequency and importance of polyploidy in tropical rainforest tree radiations
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 4, Page 2103-2114, February 2026.Summary The presence of more than two copies of the genome in an organism, termed ‘polyploidy’, is a crucial force in plant evolution, generating genetic, phenotypic and ecological diversity. [Correction added on 22 January 2026, after first online publication: the preceding sentence has been corrected.] The Amazonian tree flora is the most species ...

What drives deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon? Evidence from satellite and socioeconomic data [PDF]
This paper analyzes the determinants of deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon. From a model of optimal use, it derives and then estimates a deforestation equation on county-level data for the period 1978 to 1988.
