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 ...
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 ...
Tropical montane vegetation dynamics near the upper cloud belt strongly associated with a shifting ITCZ and fire
(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 ...
