Schinus terebinthifolius (Brazilian pepper tree).
, 2021 Abstract S. terebinthifolia is a small tree, 3-10 m tall (occasionally up to 15 m) and 10-30 cm diameter (occasionally up to 60 cm). It is native to Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay, generally colonizing open areas, and is particularly found on forest borders and river margins.

Detecting the Locations of Brazilian Pepper Trees in the Everglades with a Hyperspectral Sensor
Weed Technology, 2004 Brazilian pepper is a small evergreen tree that forms dense colonies. It was introduced for horticultural use in the United States in the early 1800s and was widely distributed in Florida in the late 1920s. Previous remote-sensing projects to detect Brazilian pepper achieved moderate success and warranted additional research using a hyperspectral ...

Global Change Biology, 2019 AbstractWinter climate change is expected to lead to the tropicalization of temperate ecosystems, where tropical species expand poleward in response to a decrease in the intensity and duration of winter temperature extremes (i.e., freeze events). In the southeastern United States, freezing temperatures control the northern range limits of many invasive

Chemical Engineering Communications, 2014 In this study, the drying process of Brazilian pepper-tree fruits (Schinus terebinthifolius Raddi) was investigated, with emphasis on the development of models for the drying kinetics. A central composite rotable design (CCRD) with 11 experiments was carried out. In each experiment, the drying kinetics and the drying rate were observed.
