Tropical rainforest species have larger increases in temperature optima with warming than warm-temperate rainforest trees. [PDF]

New Phytol, 2022
Summary While trees can acclimate to warming, there is concern that tropical rainforest species may be less able to acclimate because they have adapted to a relatively stable thermal environment.

Non-microbial methane emissions from tropical rainforest soils under different conditions. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2021
Non-microbial methane (NM-CH4), emissions from soil might play a significant role in carbon cycling and global climate change. However, the production mechanisms and emission potential of soil NM-CH4 from tropical rainforest remain highly uncertain.

Testing camera traps as a potential tool for detecting nest predation of birds in a tropical rainforest environment

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2018
Identification of the predators of bird nests is essential to test ecological and evolutionary hypotheses and to make practical management decisions. A variety of nest monitoring devices have been proposed but many remain difficult to set up in the field.

The importance of large-diameter trees in the wet tropical rainforests of Australia.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Large trees are keystone structures in many terrestrial ecosystems. They contribute disproportionately to reproduction, recruitment and succession, and influence the structure, dynamics and diversity of forests.

Molecular and morphological evidence for a new species of Pogostemon (Lamiaceae) from Hainan Island, China [PDF]

PhytoKeys, 2022
Pogostemon hainanensis, a new species of Lamiaceae from Hainan Island, China, is described. The phylogenetic position of the new species within Pogostemon was investigated based on analyses of the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (nrITS) and
