Arthropod Diversity in a Tropical Forest [PDF]

Science, 2012
Assessing Creepy Crawlies Arthropods are the most diverse group of terrestrial animal species, yet estimates of the total number of arthropod species have varied widely, especially for tropical forests. Basset et al.

Dead Wood Necromass in a Moist Tropical Forest : Stocks, Fluxes, and Spatiotemporal Variability [PDF]

, 2019
Woody debris (WD) stocks and fluxes are important components of forest carbon budgets and yet remain understudied, particularly in tropical forests. Here we present the most comprehensive assessment of WD stocks and fluxes yet conducted in a tropical ...

Simulating carbon stocks and fluxes of an African tropical montane forest with an individual-based forest model. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Tropical forests are carbon-dense and highly productive ecosystems. Consequently, they play an important role in the global carbon cycle. In the present study we used an individual-based forest model (FORMIND) to analyze the carbon balances of a tropical

Quantifying Dynamics in Tropical Peat Swamp Forest Biomass with Multi- Temporal LiDAR Datasets [PDF]

, 2013
Tropical peat swamp forests in Indonesia store huge amounts of carbon and are responsible for enormous carbon emissions every year due to forest degradation and deforestation.

Flora of Baturité, Ceará: a Wet Island in the Brazilian Semiarid

Floresta e Ambiente, 2020
The biota of the humid mountain ranges of the Brazilian semiarid is still poorly understood. In order to fill this scientific gap, we carried out an extensive survey along altitudinal ranges (400m - 1,000 m) on both the windward and the leeward slopes of

Hydrologically transported dissolved organic carbon influences soil respiration in a tropical rainforest [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2016
To better understand the effect of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) transported by hydrological processes (rainfall, throughfall, litter leachate, and surface soil water; 0–20 cm) on soil respiration in tropical rainforests, we detected the DOC flux in ...

Large broad-leaved canopy of banana (Musa nana Lour.) induces dramatically high spatial–temporal variability of throughfall

Hydrology Research, 2021
Throughfall (TF) is an important water input of rainfall redistribution into floor, and its spatial–temporal variability under some species' canopies has been documented to evaluate effect on splash erosion.
