Key messageForest edge impacts emergent trees growthby reducing the number of growth releases. This reduction seems to be related with lianas infestation found at the forest edge. Abstract Deforestation in tropical regions is raising fragmentation to alarming levels. Not only does it lead to losses of forest area, but also the abiotic and biotic changes on forest edge areas alter the development...
Key messageBoth water availability and temperature modulate the growth ofHymenaea courbarilon karst in Central Brazil. There is evidence of teleconnections between South Atlantic SST and tree growth. Abstract Tropical dry forests have low annual precipitation and long dry seasons. Water availability, the main...
Tree species use a variety of strategies to obtain resources. As a result, semi-deciduous forest species and cerrado species can grow in close proximity and in the same climate, while occupying very different vegetation types. The aim of this study was to understand the dynamic responses of Hymenaea courbaril, a forest species, and Hymenaea stigonocarpa, a cerrado species, to annual climatic variation...
Knowledge on juvenile tree growth is crucial to understand how trees reach the canopy in tropical forests. However, long-term data on juvenile tree growth are usually unavailable. Annual tree rings provide growth information for the entire life of trees and their analysis has become more popular in tropical forest regions over the past decades. Nonetheless, tree ring studies mainly deal with adult...
