DOI: 10.1111/1365-2435.14221
Abstract: Abstract Regenerating tropical forests are increasingly important for their role in the global carbon cycle. Carbon stocks in above‐ground biomass can recover to old‐growth forest levels within 60–100 years. However, more than half of all carbon… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0263508
Abstract: Understanding variation in tree functional traits along topographic gradients and through time provides insights into the processes that will shape community composition and determine ecosystem functioning. In montane environments, complex topography is known to affect… read more here.
