Drivers of biomass stocks and productivity of tropical secondary forests
Young tropical secondary forests play an important role in the local and global carbon cycles
because of their large area and rapid biomass accumulation rates. This study examines how …

Understanding vegetative ecophysiological responses of herbaceous species from a Brazilian dry forest by simulating 60‐year precipitation extremes
BAS Aguiar, JD de Souza, JA Simões… - Plant Species … - Wiley Online Library
Abstract In the Caatinga, a Brazilian dry forest, low water availability is a limiting factor that
affects the growth and survival of herbaceous plants. Thus, we hypothesize that simulated …
