Isoprene emission from tropical tree species

Environmental Pollution, 2005
Foliar emission of isoprene was measured in nine commonly growing tree species of Delhi, India. Dynamic flow enclosure technique was used and gas samples were collected onto Tenax-GC/Carboseive cartridges, which were then attached to the sample injection system in the gas chromatograph (GC).

Hurricane Disturbance and Tropical Tree Species Diversity

Science, 2000
The debate over the maintenance of high diversity of tree species in tropical forests centers on the role of tree-fall gaps as a primary source of disturbance. Using a 10-year data series accumulated since Hurricane Joan struck the Caribbean coast of Nicaragua in 1988, we examined the pattern of species accumulation over time and with increased ...

Pervasive within-species spatial repulsion among adult tropical trees

Science, 2023
For species to coexist, performance must decline as the density of conspecific individuals increases. Although evidence for such conspecific negative density dependence (CNDD) exists in forests, the within-species spatial repulsion it should produce has rarely been demonstrated in adults.

Widespread herbivory cost in tropical nitrogen-fixing tree species

Nature, 2022
Recent observations suggest that the large carbon sink in mature and recovering forests may be strongly limited by nitrogen1-3. Nitrogen-fixing trees (fixers) in symbiosis with bacteria provide the main natural source of new nitrogen to tropical forests3,4.

Towards quantifying tropical tree species richness in tropical forests

International Journal of Remote Sensing, 2009
This letter reports tests of whether the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) from Landsat Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) and radar backscatter (C-, L-and P-bands) from Airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar (AIRSAR) imagery can be used to estimate tree species richness from 25 1-ha plots within continuous lowland forest types (dry, moist ...

Tree fallows: A comparison between five tropical tree species

Biology and Fertility of Soils, 1996
The natural abundance of 15N and 13C, conventional soil analyses, and biomass production by maize were used to study the influence of five tropical tree species on soils and their fertility. The experiment was conducted in Morogoro, Tanzania, to compare Cassia (Senna) siamea, Eucalyptus camaldulensis, E.

MICROPROPAGATION OF TROPICAL TREE SPECIES

Acta Horticulturae, 2013
Tree species are important in tropical regions as a source of timber, nutrition, medicine, fuel, income and livestock food. Many vegetable species are not adapted to production in tropical climates, further highlighting the importance of tropical fruit species in these regions.

TROPICAL RAINFOREST GAPS AND TREE SPECIES DIVERSITY

Annual Review of Ecology and Systematics, 1987
Evolutionary hypotheses about how so many species of tropical rainforest trees might have arisen include (a) genetic drift (71), (b) habitat specialization (8) in benign environments, or (c) repeated geographic isolation followed by remixing of species during Pleistocene climatic fluctuations (144).
