Fire history along environmental gradients in the subtropical pine forests of the Cordillera Central, Dominican Republic
(2006)[English] Fire history was reconstructed from fire-scarred individuals of the endemic pine (Pinus occidentalis) along climatic gradients in the Cordillera Central, Dominican Republic. -
Hurricane impacts on a mangrove forest in the Dominican Republic : damage patterns and early recovery
(2006)On 22 September 1998, Hurricane Georges passed over the Dominican Republic causing extensive damage to a 4700 ha mangrove forest that has been the site of a detailed study of vegetation and ecosystem dynamics since 1994. ... -
Linking community and national park development : a case from the Dominican Republic
(2002)National parks have complex relationships with local communities that impact both conservation success and community well-being. Integrated conservation arid development projects have been a key approach to managing these ... -
Patterns of growth, recruitment, mortality and biomass across an altitudinal gradient in a neotropical montane forest, Dominican Republic
(2012)[English] We examined stand dynamics and biomass along an altitudinal gradient in a tropical montane forest (TMF) in the disturbance-prone Cordillera Central, Dominican Republic. We tested the general hypothesis that chronic ... -
Small-scale disturbance and regeneration dynamics in a neotropical mangrove forest
(2000)Mangrove forests are affected by a variety of natural disturbances that differ in scale, intensity and frequency. Small canopy gaps, although common, have not been well studied. We examined the role of lightning-created ... -
Spatial patterns of biomass and aboveground net primary productivity in a mangrove ecosystem in the Dominican Republic
(2003)The objective of this study was to quantify spatial patterns in above and below ground biomass, primary productivity, and growth efficiency along a tidal gradient in a 4700-ha mangrove forest in the Dominican Republic. We ... -
Tropical montane forest ecotones : climate gradients, natural disturbance, and vegetation zonation in the Cordillera Central, Dominican Republic
(2015)Aim: We examined relationships between climate–disturbance gradients and patterns of vegetation zonation and ecotones on a subtropical mountain range. Location: The study was conducted on the windward slopes of the ...
