Litterfall and leaf decomposition in Nothofagus pumilio forests along an altitudinal gradient in Tierra del Fuego, Argentina [PDF]
To achieve a fuller understanding of forest ecosystem functioning, it is necessary to know decomposition dynamics. The objective of this study was to quantify litter production, decomposition and mineralization in Nothofagus pumilio forests, in Tierra ...

Habitat-specific vegetation and seasonal drivers of bird community structure and function in southern Patagonian forests [PDF]
Biodiversity conservation requires knowledge about the factors that influence the structure and function of biotic assemblages. In southern Patagonian Nothofagus forests, birds are the most abundant and diverse vertebrates and are known to have different

Abstract Old-growth forests present a mosaic of different conditions resulting from the natural forest structure of the stands. Nothofagus betuloides forests have high spatial variability in regeneration without a clear correlation with overstory, and could be related to location of the stands in the landscape.

Ecology of bryophytes along altitudinal and latitudinal gradients in Chile [PDF]
The bryophyte vegetation in twenty-eight hectare plots in forests of S-Chile between 38° and 42°S and sea level and the forest line has been studied. Since bryophytes are fully dependend on atmospheric water and nutrient supply, they are good indicators ...

The First Firn Core From the Cordillera Darwin Icefield: Implications for Future Ice Core Research
Abstract The Southern Hemisphere westerly winds (SHWWs) (45–65°S) are important regulators of the Southern Hemisphere climate. The scarcity of observational records at the core of the wind belt hinders our understanding of the environmental impact and long‐term variability of the westerly winds.

Abstract The soil carbon dynamics of southern hemisphere temperate rainforests have rarely been studied. Here, we report for the first time soil CO2 effluxes and their partitioning for medium‐age and old‐growth Fitzroya cupressoides forests growing under contrasting environmental conditions in the Coastal Range and Andean Cordillera of southern Chile ...
