Regional and seasonal patterns of litterfall in tropical South America

Chave, J.; Navarrete, D.; Almeida, S.; Álvarez Dávila, Esteban; Aragao, L. E. O. C.; Bonal, D.; Chatelet, P.; Silva-Espejo, J. E.; Goret, J. Y.; Hildebrand, P. von; Jiménez, Eliana; Patiño, Sandra; Peñuela, Maria Cristina; Phillips, O. L.; Stevenson, P.; Malhi, Y. (Copernicus Publications, 2010)

The production of aboveground soft tissue represents an important share of total net primary production in tropical rain forests. Here we draw from a large number of published and unpublished datasets (n = 81 sites) to ...

Above- and below-ground net primary productivity across ten Amazonian forests on contrasting soils

Aragao, L. E. O. C.; Malhi, Y.; Metcalfe, D. B.; Silva-Espejo, J. E.; Jiménez, Eliana; Navarrete, D.; Almeida, S.; Costa, A. C. L.; Salinas, N.; Phillips, O. L.; Anderson, L. O.; Álvarez Dávila, Esteban; Baker, T. R.; Goncalvez, P. H.; Huamán-Ovalle, J.; Mamani-Solórzano, M.; Meir, P.; Monteagudo, A.; Patiño, Sandra; Peñuela, Maria Cristina; Prieto, A.; Quesada, C. A.; Rozas-Dávila, A.; Rudas, A.; Silva Jr., J. A.; Vásquez, R. (Copernicus Publications, 2009)

The net primary productivity (NPP) of tropical forests is one of the most important and least quantified components of the global carbon cycle. Most relevant studies have focused particularly on the quantification of the ...

Regional and large-scale patterns in Amazon forest structure and function are mediated by variations in soil physical and chemical properties

Quesada, C. A.; Lloyd, Jon; Schwarz, M.; Baker, T. R.; Phillips, O. L.; Patiño, Sandra; Czimczi, C.; Hodnett, M. G.; Herrera, R.; Arneth, A.; Lloyd, G.; Malhi, Y.; Dezzeo, N.; Luizâo, F. J.; Santos, A. J. B.; Schmerler, J.; Arroyo, L.; Silveira, M.; Priante Filho, N.; Jiménez, Eliana; Paiva, R.; Vieira, I.; Neil, D.

M.; Álvarez Dávila, Esteban; Fiore, A. di; Chao, K. J.; Honorio, E.; Killeen, T.; Peña Cruz, A.; Pitman, N.; Núñez Vargas, P.; Salomao, R.; Terborgh, J.; Ramírez, H. (Copernicus Publications, 2009)

Forest structure and dynamics have been noted to vary across the Amazon Basin in an east-west gradient in a pattern which coincides with variations in soil fertility and geology. This has resulted in the hypothesis that ...
