Progress in Physical Geography: Earth and Environment, 1993
Concern about the future of tropical rain forests has largely focused on threats to the survival of the extraordinary biological diversity that characterizes these ecosystems. Another perspective emphasizes the role that tropical rain forests play in the global carbon cycle.

1998
Abstract This new edition of Whitmore's classic introduction to tropical rain forests has been comprehensively revised and updated, reflecting the changes which have taken place since it was first published in 1990. The sections on human impact have been extended to include a new global assessment of deforestation as well as details of ...

Abstract Environmental change is an enduring facet of human history. Vegetation, soils, fauna, water, climate, landforms—in short, all the major components of the biosphere—have been profoundly altered by human agency. In the mid-latitudes, for example, cultivated landscapes and urban systems sprawl over regions where once great forests ...

Monospecific dominance in tropical rain forests
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1990Old-growth rain forests that are dominated by a single canopy species occur throughout the tropics, though they account for a limited proportion of the total rain forest area. These forests have been considered anomalies in which development of a more diverse community is deflected by harsh conditions.
