Liana loads and post-logging liana densities after liana cutting in a lowland forest in Bolivia
Abstract Liana infestations can be a problem in forests managed for timber because lianas decrease rates of tree growth, damage tree boles, and inhibit tree regeneration. To determine the area from which lianas colonize tree crowns in a liana-rich moist lowland forest in a timber concession in the Department of Santa Cruz, Bolivia, we described ...

EFFECT OF LIANA CUTTING ON TREE REGENERATION IN A LIANA FOREST IN AMAZONIAN BOLIVIA
Lianas, woody climbing plants, are a conspicuous component of tropical forest canopies that might affect prevailing conditions in the forest floor and thus impact tree seedling regeneration. The effects of lianas on tree seedling survival, growth, and density were studied in a lowland liana forest in Bolivia.

AbstractLIANA is a question answering system in PL/1. The program takes German natural language input and, by morphological, syntactic and semantic analysis, creates a representation of the text, which is stored and can be accessed for retrieval purposes.All individuals (objects) mentioned in the sentence are found and stored.

Lianas and Trees in a Liana Forest of Amazonian Bolivia1
BIOTROPICA, 2001ABSTRACTThe distribution of lianas (woody climbing plants) on trees in a lowland “liana forest” of northeastern Bolivia was clumped and varied with characteristics of individual trees and tree neighbors. In twenty‐four 900‐m2 square plots established to estimate tree (a 10 cm DBH [diameter at breast height]) and liana (≥2 cm DBH) densities and to count

A liana is a long-stemmed, woody vine that is rooted in the soil at ground level and uses trees to climb up to the canopy to get access to well-lit areas of the forest. The main goal of this book is to present the current status of liana ecology in tropical and temperate forests.

Logging and lianas in West Africa.
2005AbstractSeveral aspects are considered including liana cutting as a silvicultural tool, liana abundance and tree infestation, silvicultural systems with natural regeneration and liana cutting, and forest regeneration based on a "model" forest.

Invasive alien lianas have similar allometry to native lianas in temperate forests
Biological Invasions, 2016Lianas use other trees for mechanical support and convert freed resources into other structures such as leaf biomass. Consequently, lianas can contribute significantly to leaf biomass in forests. As invasive species tend to have higher growth rates, we predicted that invasive lianas would have higher biomass accumulation which would cause greater ...
