Amazonian understory forests change phosphorus acquisition strategies under elevated CO2 [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
The potential for the Amazon forest to continue functioning as a carbon (C) sink strongly depends on soil nutrient availability, particularly phosphorus (P), and on plants’ ability to adjust nutrient acquisition strategies.

Soil fertility and drought interact to determine large variations in wood production for a hyperdominant Amazonian tree species

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2023
IntroductionThe productivity of the Amazon Rainforest is related to climate and soil fertility. However, the degrees to which these interactions influence multiannual to decadal variations in tree diameter growth are still poorly explored.MethodsTo fill ...

Soil Quality Restoration during the Natural Succession of Abandoned Cattle Pastures in Deforested Landscapes in the Colombian Amazon

open access: yesAgronomy, 2021
Successional processes in abandoned pastures in the Amazon region have been well-documented for the floristic component; however, soil succession has been poorly studied. This study assessed the physical, chemical and biological responses of soils in the
