Karst tiankengs as refugia for indigenous tree flora amidst a degraded landscape in southwestern China

Scientific Reports, 2017
We conducted floristic and community analyses to compare the floristic composition, forest structure, taxonomic richness, and species diversity between two tiankeng (large doline, or sinkhole) habitats and two outside-tiankeng habitats of forest ...

Floristic Groups, and Changes in Diversity and Structure of Trees, in Tropical Montane Forests in the Southern Andes of Ecuador

Diversity, 2021
Composition, diversity, and structure of trees in tropical montane forests are responsive to ecological gradients and local succession. Those parameters are a result of ecological interactions between vegetation, environment, and location.

Multi-scale comparisons of tree composition in Amazonian terra firme forests [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2009
We explored the floristic composition of terra firme forests across Amazonia using 55 plots. Firstly, we examined the floristic patterns using both genus- and species-level data and found that the species-level analysis more clearly distinguishes among ...

Post-fire effects on bryophytes in High-Altitude Fields

Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2022
High-Altitude Fields are ecosystems with high bryophyte abundances and diversities. One of the principal threats to these ecosystems are wildfires, which mainly affect terricolous species. Chronosequence studies can aid in understanding post-fire effects
