Trait filtering during exotic plant invasion of tropical rainforest remnants along a disturbance gradient [PDF]

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, 2020
1. Human-modified tropical landscapes are often invaded by exotic plant species, but relatively few species are able to colonise remnant areas of rainforest embedded within such landscapes.

Land-use change and propagule pressure promote plant invasions in tropical rainforest remnants [PDF]

open access: yesLandscape Ecology, 2020
Intact tropical rainforests are considered robust to plant invasions. However, land-use change alters the structure and species composition of native forest, opening up tropical landscapes to invasion.

Termites mitigate the effects of drought in tropical rainforest [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2019
Forest termites mitigate the effects of drought In many tropical regions, where drought is predicted to become more frequent in the coming years, termites are key components of ecosystem function. Ashton et al.

How Tropical Epiphytes at the Eden Project Contribute to Rainforest Canopy Science [PDF]

open access: yesSibbaldia, 2017
Understanding the ecological patterns and ecosystem processes of tropical rainforest canopies is becoming increasingly urgent in the face of widespread deforestation. However, accessing rainforest canopies is far from simple, and performing manipulative

Simulating atmospheric composition over a South-East Asian tropical rainforest: performance of a chemistry box model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Atmospheric composition and chemistry above tropical rainforests is currently not well established, particularly for south-east Asia. In order to examine our understanding of chemical processes in this region, the performance of a box model of ...

Tropical rainforest species have larger increases in temperature optima with warming than warm‐temperate rainforest trees

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 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.

Tropical Rainforest Successional Processes can Facilitate Successfully Recovery of Extremely Degraded Tropical Forest Ecosystems Following Intensive Mining Operations

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2021
Reforestation is an effective way to alleviate deforestation and its negative impacts on ecosystem services. In tropical rainforest ecosystem, however, frequent typhoons and heavy rainfall can result in landslides and uprooting of many seedlings, making ...

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

open access: yesPLoS 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.
