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 ... -
Small-scale disturbance and regeneration dynamics in a neotropical mangrove forest
Sherman, Ruth E.; Fahey, Timothy J.; Battles, John J. (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 ...
