Climate seasonality limits leaf carbon assimilation and wood productivity in tropical forests

Fabien Wagner, +106 more
- 28 Apr 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the seasonal climate drivers of the carbon cycle in tropical forests remain poorly known, although these forests account for more carbon assimilation and storage than any other terrestrial ecosystem.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tree mode of death in Central Amazonia: Effects of soil and topography on tree mortality associated with storm disturbances

TL;DR: There was an increase from the first to the second census interval in the effects associated with soil and topography on tree mortality by uprooting and snapping, and this was likely due to storms, which led to a disproportional increase in tree mortality for these tree modes of death.
Journal ArticleDOI

How much variation in tree mortality is predicted by soil and topography in Central Amazonia

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated tree mortality in 72 1-ha permanent plots spanning 64 km 2 of tropical moist forest in Reserva Ducke, Manaus, Brazil and found that soil fertility was the most important predictor of tree mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biased-corrected richness estimates for the Amazonian tree flora.

Hans ter Steege, +239 more
- 23 Jun 2020 - 
TL;DR: By averaging several methods to estimate total richness, this work confirms that over 15,000 tree species are expected to occur in Amazonia and shows that the species abundance distribution of Amazonia is best approximated by a logseries with aggregated individuals, where aggregation increases with rarity.
