TL;DR: The broad suite of measurements made at CTFS-ForestGEO sites makes it possible to investigate the complex ways in which global change is impacting forest dynamics, and continued monitoring will provide vital contributions to understanding worldwide forest diversity and dynamics in an era of global change.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a new global tropical forest database consisting of 39 955 concurrent H and D measurements encompassing 283 sites in 22 tropical countries, and used this database to determine if H:D relationships differ by geographic region and forest type (wet to dry forests, including zones of tension where forest and savanna overlap).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used colorimetric methods to determine the total phenolic, total flavonoids, and various in vitro antioxidant activities (DPPH, ABTS and FRAP) of methanolic extract.

TL;DR: In this article, a pan-tropical dataset of 360 plots located in structurally intact old-growth closed-canopy forest, surveyed using standardised methods, allowing a multi-scale evaluation of diversity-carbon relationships in tropical forests.

TL;DR: This synthesis of plot networks across climatic and biogeographic gradients shows that forest thermal sensitivity is dominated by high daytime temperatures, and biome-wide variation in tropical forest carbon stocks and dynamics shows long-term resilience to increasing high temperatures.
