Patterns of growth, recruitment, mortality and biomass across an altitudinal gradient in a neotropical montane forest, Dominican Republic
Sherman, Ruth E.; Fahey, Timothy J.; Martin, Patrick H.; Battles, John J. (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 ... -
The multidimensional (and contrasting) effects of environmental warming on a group of montane tropical lizards
Muñoz, Martha M.; Feeley, Kenneth J.; Martin, Patrick H.; Farallo, Vincent R. (2022)Mountains are cradles for biodiversity and crucibles for climate-driven species loss, particularly for tropical ectotherms. Constriction on activity and amplified heat stress are two key sources of warming-driven vulnerability ... -
Tropical montane forest ecotones : climate gradients, natural disturbance, and vegetation zonation in the Cordillera Central, Dominican Republic
Martin, Patrick H.; Sherman, Ruth E.; Fahey, Timothy J. (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 ... -
Tropical montane vegetation dynamics near the upper cloud belt strongly associated with a shifting ITCZ and fire
Crausbay, Shelley D.; Martin, Patrick H.; Kelly, Eugene F. (2022)Tropical montane forests house unusual and diverse biota and are considered highly vulnerable to climate change, particularly near the trade wind inversion (TWI) – the upper end of the cloud belt that defines tropical ...
