Arboreal frogs, tank bromeliads and disturbed seasonal tropical forest [PDF]

, 2003
We investigated the relationship between arboreal frogs, tank bromeliads and landscape transformation in tropical forests of southeastern Campeche, Mexico. We surveyed frogs in six distinct habitats: slash and burn agriculture, seasonally flooded forest (

Forests and Landscapes of Dominican Republic [PDF]

, 2015
Aims: This, in conjunction with the diversity of the substrates and the fact that the island is home to the highest mountains in the Caribbean and with a high rate of endemic species, allows them to be differentiated into three major groups –dry forest ...

Canopy Density and Roughness Differentiate Resistance of a Tropical Dry Forest to Major Hurricane Damage

Remote Sensing, 2021
Tropical dry forest is vulnerable to increased climate variability with more frequent and severe storms. Studies of hurricane impact on tropical dry forest often focused on individual tree traits. How trees in tropical dry forests work together to combat

Energy and water dynamics of a central Amazonian rain forest [PDF]

, 2002
This paper presents measurements of the energy and water budgets of a tropical rain forest near Manaus, Brazil, in central Amazonia, collected between September 1995 and August 1996.

Solar Flow Synthesis of Polymer Nanoparticles: Scaling Local Experiments to Global Potential

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The large‐scale sunlight‐induced photochemical synthesis of polymer nanoparticles based on the Diels–Alder step‐growth polymerization of a bismaleimide and a difunctional o‐methylbenzaldehyde in a self‐built solar flow reactor is introduced. Furthermore, a framework is established to translate sunlight‐driven experimental results globally—validated in ...

Pollen-based biome reconstructions for Latin America at 0, 6000 and 18 000 radiocarbon years ago [PDF]

Climate of the Past, 2009
The biomisation method is used to reconstruct Latin American vegetation at 6000±500 and 18 000±1000 radiocarbon years before present (¹⁴C yr BP) from pollen data.

Does degradation from selective logging and illegal activities differently impact forest resources? A case study in Ghana [PDF]

, 2016
Degradation, a reduction of the ecosystem’s capacity to supply goods and services, is widespread in tropical forests and mainly caused by human disturbance.

Integrating LiDAR, Multispectral and SAR Data to Estimate and Map Canopy Height in Tropical Forests

Remote Sensing, 2019
Developing accurate methods to map vegetation structure in tropical forests is essential to protect their biodiversity and improve their carbon stock estimation. We integrated LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), multispectral and SAR (Synthetic Aperture

High density of tree-cavities and snags in tropical dry forest of western Mexico raises questions for a latitudinal gradient. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
It has been suggested that a latitudinal gradient exists of a low density of snags and high density of naturally-formed tree-cavities in tropical vs. temperate forests, though few cavities may have characteristics suitable for nesting by birds.
