Functional recovery of secondary tropical forests [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2021
Significance Tropical forests disappear rapidly through deforestation but also have the potential to regrow naturally through a process called secondary succession. To advance successional theory, it is essential to understand how these secondary forests and their assembly vary across broad spatial scales.

Multidimensional tropical forest recovery

Science, 2021
Resilient secondary tropical forests? Although deforestation is rampant across the tropics, forest has a strong capacity to regrow on abandoned lands. These “secondary” forests may increasingly play important roles in biodiversity conservation, climate change mitigation, and landscape restoration. Poorter

Potential impacts of COVID-19 on tropical forest recovery. [PDF]

Biotropica, 2020
COVID-19 has impacted humanity and the global environment in myriad ways, and more changes are on the horizon. Here we consider the impact of COVID-19 on our collective ability to restore degraded habitats and facilitate forest recovery in the tropics.

Forest disturbance and recovery in Peruvian Amazonia

Global Change Biology, 2023
AbstractAmazonian forests function as biomass and biodiversity reservoirs, contributing to climate change mitigation. While they continuously experience disturbance, the effect that disturbances have on biomass and biodiversity over time has not yet been assessed at a large scale.

Life after recovery: Increased resolution of forest resilience assessment sheds new light on post‐drought compensatory growth and recovery dynamics [PDF]

, 2021
1. Understanding the impacts of extreme drought on forest productivity requires a comprehensive assessment of tree and forest resilience. However, current approaches to quantifying resilience limit our understanding of forest response dynamics, recovery ...

Forest structure and recovery in selectively logged forests in Sarawak, Malaysia

Tropics, 2023
In Sarawak, Malaysia, logging is conducted with a 25-year harvesting cycle; however, it remains largely unclear if this cycle length is sufficient for forest recovery. This study aims to investigate how the structure of logged forests recovered along the periods after logging.

Recovery and resilience of tropical forests after disturbance [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2014
Abstract The time taken for forested tropical ecosystems to re-establish post-disturbance is of widespread interest. Yet to date there has been no comparative study across tropical biomes to determine rates of forest re-growth, and how they vary through space and time.
