Eastern Siberia is located at the centre of a continuous permafrost zone. The most prominent feature of this zone is its vast cover by deciduous coniferous boreal (taiga) forest. Underlying the boreal ecosystem is an extensive and massive ice layer within the permafrost (Yedoma), which was crucial for the development of large ground subsidence during ...

Predictive Models of Forest Dynamics
Science, 2008Dynamic global vegetation models (DGVMs) have shown that forest dynamics could dramatically alter the response of the global climate system to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide over the next century. But there is little agreement between different DGVMs, making forest dynamics one of the greatest sources of uncertainty in predicting future climate ...

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1987
The land surfaces of the Hawaiian islands represent an age sequence from very recent on the island of Hawaii to over 5 million years old on the island of Kauai. Development of indigenous forest on the new basaltic lava flows of Hawaii begins with Metrosideros polymorpha forming mono-dominant canopy stands within 400 years in lowland rain forest ...

Biotropica, 1980
Neotropical forest dynamics are reviewed by focusing on four questions: (1) What is a mature neotropical forest? (2) How long does it take to attain maturity? (3) How important are gaps to species regeneration? and (4) What are the important equilibrium processes in neotropical forest dynamics?

Abstract n Chapter 6, tropical rain forests were examined on the long-time scale of tens of thousands of years and shown to have fluctuated in area. Delving further still, over millions of years, continental drift and evolution come into play. Present day fauna and flora bear witness to these long-term changes.

Forest dynamics and demography
Science, 2020Tropical Forests Tropical forest succession has been viewed mostly by considering trees in categories of early-, mid-, and late-successional species, corresponding to a fast–slow continuum of life history strategies. Ruger et al. now show that the fast–slow continuum does not capture the demographic strategy of the long-lived pioneer species, an ...
