TL;DR: This work analyzed a global database of directly harvested trees at 58 sites, spanning a wide range of climatic conditions and vegetation types, and found a pantropical model incorporating wood density, trunk diameter, and the variable E outperformed previously published models without height.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a structural equation model to test the hypothesis that species richness, forest structural attributes and environmental drivers have independent, positive effects on aboveground biomass (AGB) and ecosystem functioning.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the services delivered by a tropical dry forest (TDF) ecosystem in the Chamela Region, on the Pacific Coast of Mexico, using the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA) conceptual framework as a guide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal changes of leaf area index (LAI) in a tropical deciduous forest in west Mexico
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used light canopy transmittance and the Beer-Lambert equation to assess monthly leaf area index (LAI) of a tropical deciduous forest ecosystem on the west coast of Mexico.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variation in vegetation structure and soil properties related to land use history of old-growth and secondary tropical dry forests in northwestern Mexico
TL;DR: In this article, the vegetation structure and soil properties among old-growth tropical dry forests representing three categories of grazing intensity by cattle (light, moderate and heavy grazing) and a category of 20-30-yr old secondary forest experiencing occasional grazing in a locality in northwestern Mexico were compared.
