Atlantic Forest replacement by non-native tree plantations: Comparing aboveground necromass between native forest and pine plantation ecosystems [PDF]
Abstract Necromass is a critical structural and functional component of forest ecosystems that represents an important and relatively long-lived aboveground forest carbon pool. In the Atlantic Forest of Northern Argentina, a large area of native forest has been replaced by commercial, non-native tree plantations.
