Tropical tree growth driven by dry-season climate variability
Zuidema, Pieter A.; Babst, Flurin; Groenendijk, Peter; Trouet, Valerie; Abiyu, Abrham; Acuña-Soto, Rodolfo; Adenesky-Filho, EduardoInterannual variability in the global land carbon sink is strongly related to variations in tropical temperature and rainfall. This association suggests an important role for moisture-driven fluctuations in tropical vegetation productivity, but empirical evidence to quantify the responsible ecological processes is missing. Such evidence can be obtained from tree-ring data that quantify variability in a major ve...
A vegetação lenhosa da caatinga em assentamento do Estado de Sergipe : aspectos...
Pagotto, Mariana AlvesIn the semi-arid Caatinga of the Brazilian state of Sergipe, where the land is occupied predominantly by settlements of the agrarian reform, the principal products firewood, charcoal, and fence-posts are derived from forestry practices. With the aim of providing practical guidelines for the implementation of sustainable forestry management practices in these settlements, the present study analyzed the potential...
