High dispersal ability is related to fast life‐history strategies
Dispersal has been largely neglected in comparative demographic studies, despite its pivotal importance for populations. Our explicit incorporation of dispersal in a comparative life‐history framework provides key insights to bridge the gap between dispersal ecology and life‐history traits. Species with fast life‐history strategies disperse their seeds

We explored the allocation strategies of N and P in leaves and fine roots (metabolic organs) and, in stems and coarse roots (woody organs) of nine dominant tree species in secondary tropical dry forests using scaling analysis. The scaling relationships of P versus N concentrations in non‐leaf organs were isometric across secondary succession and ...

Palms are prominent components of many tropical forests but their structural characteristics impede accurate estimates of their aboveground biomass (AGB) in tropical forests. We built a new model for estimating height for a highly abundant palm in Puerto Rico, Prestoea acuminata.
