Drought Survival Strategies of Tropical Trees

open access: yes, 2016
Climate change is predicted to increase the occurrence of extreme droughts, which are associated with elevated mortality rates in tropical trees. Drought-induced mortality is thought to occur by two main mechanisms: hydraulic failure or carbon starvation .

DIOECISM IN TROPICAL FOREST TREES [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1975
The existence of dioecism among angiosperms is universally acknowledged, yet is poorly understood both from the ecological and evolutionary points of view. The reason for this hiatus might be that some have believed the relative proportion of dioecious taxa to be low (Yamplosky and Yamplosky, 1922; Lewis, 1942), while others have felt that since the ...

Tropical Geometric Variation of Tree Shapes

open access: yesDiscrete & Computational Geometry, 2022
AbstractWe study the behavior of phylogenetic tree shapes in the tropical geometric interpretation of tree space. Tree shapes are formally referred to as tree topologies; a tree topology can also be thought of as a tree combinatorial type, which is given by the tree’s branching configuration and leaf labeling.

Sex Ratios in Tropical Forest Trees [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution, 1978
Sex ratios of dioecious plants often depart significantly from unity (Correns, 1922; Dzhapardize, 1967; Godley, 1964; Pauley and Mennel, 1957; Rathore, 1969). Explanations for these deviations have usually been sought in the genetics of sexdetermination (for a review see Westergaard, 1958; Lloyd, 1974).

myDAUN dataset - tropical trees

open access: yes, 2022
myDAUN dataset (tropical trees) consists of leaf images collected from 43 tropical tree species in Malaysia. There are 30 leaf images per species with a total of 1290 leaf images. The images are resized for deep learning purposes.

Height-diameter allometry of tropical forest trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Tropical tree height-diameter (H:D) relationships may vary by forest type and region making large-scale estimates of above-ground biomass subject to bias if they ignore these differences in stem allometry.

How to Correctly Prune Tropical Trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We present tropical games, a generalization of combinatorial min-max games based on tropical algebras. Our model breaks the traditional symmetry of rational zero-sum games where players have exactly opposed goals (min vs. max), is more widely applicable than min-max and also supports a form of pruning, despite it being less effective than alpha-beta ...

Spatial Distribution of Cedrela Odorata Smaller Trees Affects Forest Regeneration in Exotic Tree Plantations in Central Côte d’Ivoire [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Cedrela odorata L. was introduced as a possible forest restauration species in classified forests at Côte d’Ivoire. Because of its demonstrated invasive behavior in other tropical forests, this study aimed to assess the impact of Cedrela odorata on the ...
