Author(s): NUMATA, I.; SILVA, S. S.; COCHRANE, M. A.; OLIVEIRA, M. V. N. d' The Amazon holds the largest tropical rain forest formation in the world but this natural ecosystem has been altered by both anthropogenic and natural disturbances since the 1970s (Davidson et al., 20... ... |
Author(s): LIMA, R. B. de; RUTISHAUSER, E.; SILVA, J. A. A. da; GUEDES, M. C.; HERAULT, B.; OLIVEIRA, C. P. de; APARÍCIO, P. da S.; SOTTA, E. D.; SILVA, D. A. S. da; FERREIRA, R. L. C. Accurate estimates of commercial volume in tropical forests are key for the implementation of sustainable forest management plans. Because of the lack of local or generic volumetric equations, most fo... ... |

D.; TOLEDO, M.; VIDAL, E.; WEST, T. A. P.; WORTEL, V.; YAMADA, T. While attention on logging in the tropics has been increasing, studies on the long-term effects of silviculture on forest dynamics and ecology remain scare and spatially limited. Indeed, most of our k... ... |
Author(s): TREW, B. T.; EDWARDS, D. P.; LEES, A. C.; KLINGES, D. H.; EARLY, R.; SVÁTEK, M.; PLICHTA, R.; MATULA, R.; OKELLO, J.; NIESSNER, A.; BARTHEL, M.; SIX, J.; MAEDA, E. E.; BARLOW, J.; NASCIMENTO, R. O. do; BERENGUER, E.; FERREIRA, J. N.; SALLO-BRAVO, J.; MACLEAN, I. M. D. Tropical forest biodiversity is potentially at high risk from climate change, but most species reside within or below the canopy, where they are buffered from extreme temperatures. Here, by modelling... ... |
Author(s): TREUHAFT, R.; GONÇALVES, F.; SANTOS, J. R. DOS; KELLER, M.; PALACE, M.; MADSEN, S. N.; SULLIVAN, F.; GRAÇA, P. M. L. A. This letter reports the sensitivity of X-band interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) data from the first dual-spacecraft radar interferometer, TanDEM-X, to variations in tropical-forest abov... ... |

A.; FIGUEIREDO, E. O.; JORGE, L. A. de C.; JUNIOR, L.; ALBUQUERQUE, R. W.; BRANCALION, P. H. S.; WILKINSON, B.; COSTA, M. O. da Tropical forests are often located in dicult-to-access areas, which make high-quality forest structure information dicult and expensive to obtain by traditional field-based approaches. LiDAR (acronym... ... |
Author(s): ROWLAND, L.; COSTA, A. C. L. da; OLIVEIRA, A. A. R.; OLIVEIRA, R. S.; BITTENCOURT, P. L.; COSTA, P. B.; GILES, A. L.; SOSA, A. I.; COUGHLIN, I.; GODLEE, J. L.; VASCONCELOS, S. S.; S. JUNIOR, J. A.; FERREIRA, L. V.; MENCUCCINI, M.; MEIR, P. CO2 efflux from stems (CO2_stem) accounts for a substantial fraction of tropical forest gross primary productivity, but the climate sensitivity of this flux remains poorly understood. We present a stu... ... |
Author(s): BARRETO, J. R.; BERENGUER, E.; FERREIRA, J. N.; JOLY, C. A.; MALHI, Y.; SEIXAS, M. M. M. de; BARLOW, J. Studies on the effects of human-driven forest disturbance usually focus on either biodiversity or carbon dynamics but much less is known about ecosystem pro-cesses that span different trophic levels.... ... |

Author(s): PIPONIOT, C.; CABON, A.; DESCROIX, L.; DOURDAIN, A.; MAZZEI, L.; OULIAC, B.; RUTISHAUSER, E.; SIST, P.; HÉRAULT, B. Background: Managed forests are a major component of tropical landscapes. Production forests as designated by national forest services cover up to 400 million ha, i.e. half of the forested area in the... ... |
