Taxonomic reappraisal of the mangrove genus Avicennia (Acanthaceae) in India

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
A taxonomic reappraisal of the mangrove genus Avicennia in India was undertaken through extensive field surveys and critical examination of herbarium specimens. Three taxa, Avicennia alba, Avicennia marina subsp. marina, and Avicennia officinalis, are described in detail. A synonymic list was compiled using the World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP)

The future of tropical forests

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2010
Five anthropogenic drivers–land use change, wood extraction, hunting, atmospheric change, climate change–will largely determine the future of tropical forests. The geographic scope and intensity of these five drivers are in flux. Contemporary land use change includes deforestation (∼64,000 km2 yr−1 for the entire tropical forest biome) and natural ...

Forest dynamics in the tropics.

2013
This chapter discusses the dynamics of tropical forests. Specifically, the chapter presents the following topics: deforestation; forest land use dynamics; forest dynamics as a process of co-evolution in social and ecological conditions; forest transition pathways; reforestation; and policies that enhance forest conservation and extension.

The tropical forests

1995
The tropical forest ecosystem is represented by three floristically diverse formations. The American formation is the most extensive, but large tracts of tropical forest are also found in equatorial Africa and South East Asia (Figure 2.1). Throughout these regions there is a recurrent structural and physiognomic adaptation to similar environmental ...
