Amazon tree dominance across forest strata
Draper, Frederick C.; Costa, Flavia R. C.; Arellano, Gabriel; Phillips, Oliver L.; Duque, Alvaro; Macía, Manuel J.; ter Steege, Hans; Asner, Gregory P.Made available in DSpace on 2021-06-25T10:27:12Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2021-01-01; Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES); The forests of Amazonia are among the most biodiverse plant communities on Earth. Given the immediate threats posed by climate and land-use change, an improved understanding of how this extraordinary biodiversity is spatially organized...
Biased-corrected richness estimates for the Amazonian tree flora
ter Steege, Hans; Prado, Paulo I.; Lima, Renato A. F. de; Pos, Edwin; de Souza Coelho, Luiz; de Andrade Lima Filho, Diogenes; Salomão, Rafael P.Made available in DSpace on 2020-12-12T01:28:32Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2020-12-01; Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES); Amazonian forests are extraordinarily diverse, but the estimated species richness is very much debated. Here, we apply an ensemble of parametric estimators and a novel technique that includes conspecific spatial aggregation to an exten...
Rarity of monodominance in hyperdiverse Amazonian forests
ter Steege, Hans; Henkel, Terry W.; Helal, Nora; Marimon, Beatriz S.; Marimon-Junior, Ben Hur; Huth, Andreas; Groeneveld, Jürgen; Sabatier, DanielMade available in DSpace on 2020-12-12T01:40:04Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2019-12-01; Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES); Tropical forests are known for their high diversity. Yet, forest patches do occur in the tropics where a single tree species is dominant. Such “monodominant” forests are known from all of the main tropical regions. For Amazonia, we sam...

Rarity of monodominance in hyperdiverse Amazonian forests
ter Steege, H.; Henkel, Terry W.; Helal, Nora; Marimon, Beatriz Schwantes; Marimon Júnior, Ben Hur; Huth, Andreas; Groeneveld, Jürgen J.Tropical forests are known for their high diversity. Yet, forest patches do occur in the tropics where a single tree species is dominant. Such “monodominant” forests are known from all of the main tropical regions. For Amazonia, we sampled the occurrence of monodominance in a massive, basin-wide database of forest-inventory plots from the Amazon Tree Diversity Network (ATDN). Utilizing a simple defining metric ...
Phylogenetic classification of the world's tropical forests
Slik, J. W.Ferry; Franklin, Janet; Arroyo-Rodríguez, Víctor; Field, Richard; Aguilar, Salomón; Aguirre, Nikolay; Ahumada, Jorge A.; Aiba, ShinichiroKnowledge about the biogeographic affinities of the world's tropical forests helps to better understand regional differences in forest structure, diversity, composition, and dynamics. Such understanding will enable anticipation of region-specific responses to global environmental change. Modern phylogenies, in combination with broad coverage of species inventory data, now allow for global biogeographic analyses...
