Pre‐contact and post‐colonial ecological legacies shape Surinamese rainforests
Ecology, Volume 105, Issue 5, May 2024.Abstract Disturbances in tropical forests can have long‐lasting ecological impacts, but their manifestations (ecological legacies) in modern forests are uncertain. Many Amazonian forests bear the mark of past soil modifications, species enrichments, and fire events, but the trajectories of ecological legacies from the pre‐contact or post‐colonial ...
