Effect of mycorrhizae on aboveground biomass in monodominant Gilbertiodendron dewevrei and mixed species forests in a tropical rainforests of the Congo Basin

open access: yesScientific African
The mechanisms underlying the relationship between aboveground biomass and mycorrhizal intensity are poorly documented in tropical forests. This study assesses the influence of mycorrhizae on aboveground biomass (AGB) in two adjacent mixed species ...

Assessing the Spectral Information of Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 Satellites for Above-Ground Biomass Retrieval of a Tropical Forest

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2022
Earth Observation (EO) spectral indices have been an important tool for quantifying and monitoring forest biomass. Nevertheless, the selection of the bands and their combination is often realized based on preceding studies or generic assumptions.

Forest and Temperature Associations of Russia Relating to Global Climate Warming [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We have developed forest and temperature associations for Russia that relate forest communities of Russia with mean annual temperature, standard deviation of mean annual temperature, and temperature tolerance limits.

Diversity patterns of ground beetles and understorey vegetation in mature, secondary and plantation forest regions of temperate Northern China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Plantation and secondary forests form increasingly important components of the global forest cover, but our current knowledge about their potential contribution to biodiversity conservation is limited.

Functional trait dissimilarity drives arboreal ant community assembly while competitive trait hierarchies shape colony performance in experimental mesocosms

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 12, Page 3487-3503, December 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Many broad‐scale studies along spatial and habitat gradients show that organisms' traits can strongly influence community assembly by facilitating dispersal and environmental filtering.

Myxomycete Biodiversity on Remote Islands of the Eastern Indian Ocean: A Comparison Between the Cocos (Keeling) and Christmas Islands

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 57, Issue 6, November 2025.
A study of the diversity of myxomycetes associated with remote islands in the Indian Ocean. ABSTRACT Myxomycetes are a widespread group of organisms but, given their inconspicuousness and the specialist knowledge needed to culture and identify them, there are many regions of the world where they have never been studied.

Structure of mixed ombrophyllous forests with Araucaria angustifolia (Araucariaceae) under external stress in Southern Brazil. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This study is part of the Floristic and Forest Inventory of Santa Catarina, conceived to evaluate forest resources, species composition and structure of forest remnants, providing information to update forest conservation and land use policy in Southern ...

Tree Diversity and Carbon Stocks in Seasonally Flooded and Terra Firme Forests in the Inner Congo Basin

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Forest plots are a benchmark tool to quantify aboveground carbon (AGC) stocks and biodiversity in tropical forests. However, atypical edaphic forest types such as seasonally flooded forests or forests on sandy soil are scarce in the plot networks, despite their widespread occurrence.

Patterns of Tree Mortality in a Monodominant Tropical Forest [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Tree death in forests is an important process at many ecological levels. The mortality rates of trees affect carbon and nutrient cycling, stand structure, community composition, and successional processes (van Mantgem et al. 2009). Tree death substantially increases resources such as light, nutrients, water, and energy available to other organisms ...

A new case of neotropical monodominant forest:Spirotropis longifolia(Leguminosae-Papilionoideae) in French Guiana

open access: yesJournal of Tropical Ecology, 2011
The main interest in studying monodominant forests in the tropics (i.e. single-dominant forestsensuRichards 1996 and Connell & Lowman 1989) is that processes leading to monodominance may highlight mechanisms controlling species diversity (Hartet al. 1989).
