Climate reverses directionality in the richness–abundance relationship across the World’s main forest biomes
(2020-11-06)
More tree species can increase the carbon storage capacity of forests (here referred to as the
more species hypothesis) through increased tree productivity and tree abundance resulting
from complementarity, but they can ...
Global patterns of tree density are contingent upon local determinants in the world’s natural forests
(2023)
Previous attempts to quantify tree abundance at global scale have largely neglected the role of local competition in modulating the influence of climate and soils on tree density. Here, we evaluated whether mean tree size ...
Neotropical Hypericum irazuense shrubs reveal recent ENSO variability in Costa Rican páramo
(2020-06)
Climate-vegetation relations in alpine systems play a pivotal role in regulating hydrology and have thus become
a research priority in a context of ongoing climate change. In this paper, we investigate how one of the ...
Improving regional flood risk assessment using flood frequency and dendrogeomorphic analyses in mountain catchments impacted by tropical cyclones
(2022-01-01)
River floods frequently occur when tropical cyclones hit land. Nonetheless, systematic, long-term discharge data
remain rather scarce in many tropical countries, which prevent proper analysis of peak discharges occurring ...
Dendrogeomorphic reconstruction of floods in a dynamic tropical river
(2020-06-15)
Tropical regions are frequently affected by intense floods causing substantial human and economic losses. A
proper management of floods and the prevention of disasters is, however, often hampered by a generalized paucity
of ...
