Journal ArticleDOI
Disentangling stand and environmental correlates of aboveground biomass in Amazonian forests
Christopher Baraloto,Christopher Baraloto,Suzanne Rabaud,Suzanne Rabaud,Quentin Molto,Lilian Blanc,Claire Fortunel,Bruno Hérault,Nállarett Dávila,Nállarett Dávila,Italo Mesones,Marcos Ríos,Elvis Valderrama,Paul V. A. Fine +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present analyses from a plot network designed to examine differences among contrasting forest habitats (terra firme, seasonally flooded, and white-sand forests) that span the gradient of climate and soil conditions of the Amazon basin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tree Community Change across 700 km of Lowland Amazonian Forest from the Andean Foothills to Brazil
Nigel C. A. Pitman,Hugo Mogollón,Nállarett Dávila,Marcos Ríos,Roosevelt García-Villacorta,Juan Ernesto Guevara,Timothy R. Baker,Abel Monteagudo,Oliver L. Phillips,Rodolfo Vásquez-Martínez,Manuel Ahuite,Milton Aulestia,Dairon Cárdenas,Carlos Cerón,Pierre-André Loizeau,David A. Neill,V Percy Núñez,Walter A. Palacios,Rodolphe Spichiger,Elvis Valderrama +19 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe patterns of tree community change along a 700-km transect through terra firme forests of western Amazonia, running from the base of the Ande si n Ecuador to the Peru-Brazil border.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecology of Testate Amoebae in an Amazonian Peatland and Development of a Transfer Function for Palaeohydrological Reconstruction
Graeme T. Swindles,Monika Reczuga,Mariusz Lamentowicz,Cassandra L. Raby,Cassandra L. Raby,T. Edward Turner,Dan J. Charman,Angela V. Gallego-Sala,Elvis Valderrama,Christopher Williams,Frederick C. Draper,Eurídice N. Honorio Coronado,Katherine H Roucoux,Timothy R. Baker,Donal Mullan +14 more
TL;DR: Canonical correspondence analysis and non-metric multidimensional scaling illustrate that water table depth is a significant control on the distribution of testate amoebae, similar to the results from mid- and high-latitude peatlands.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multi-scale comparisons of tree composition in Amazonian terra firme forests
E.N. Honorio Coronado,Timothy R. Baker,Oliver L. Phillips,Nigel C. A. Pitman,R. T. Pennington,R. Vásquez Martínez,A. Monteagudo,Hugo Mogollón,N. Dávila Cardozo,Marcos Ríos,Roosevelt García-Villacorta,Elvis Valderrama,Manuel Ahuite,Isau Huamantupa,David A. Neill,William F. Laurance,Henrique E. M. Nascimento,Samuel Almeida,Timothy J. Killeen,Luzmila Arroyo,Pablo Núñez,L. Freitas Alvarado +21 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the floristic composition of terra firme forests across Amazonia using 55 plots and found that the species-level analysis more clearly distinguishes among forests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Herbivory, growth rates, and habitat specialization in tropical tree lineages: implications for Amazonian beta‐diversity
Greg P. A. Lamarre,Christopher Baraloto,Christopher Baraloto,Claire Fortunel,Nállarett Dávila,Nállarett Dávila,Italo Mesones,Julio Miguel Grandez Rios,Marcos Ríos,Elvis Valderrama,Magno Vásquez Pilco,Paul V. A. Fine +11 more
TL;DR: Overall, focal species within lineages present contrasting patterns regarding their herbivory rates and leaf production rate within habitats, which highlights why a lineage-based approach is necessary when attempting to connect hypotheses regarding evolutionary trade-offs to community assembly patterns.
