Plant functional types broadly describe water use strategies in the Caatinga, a seasonally dry tropical forest in northeast Brazil. [PDF]
Plant functional types in the Caatinga seasonally dry forests can be defined according to phenology and wood density. Our work demonstrates that there is a tight correspondence between these plant function types and water use strategies. Abstract In seasonally dry tropical forests, plant functional type can be classified as deciduous low wood density ...
