Linking plant strategies and ecosystem function: an assessment of the contribution of biodiversity to neotropical grassland productivity
(Centro Agronómico Tropical de Investigación y Enseñanza (CATIE)
Bangor University, Gwynedd (RU), 2011)
These issues were investigated in a range of paddocks with two types of cover: semi-natural grassland and sown pastures within an altitudinal range of 200 to 400 m. In nine paddocks, 11 sequential biomass harvests after ...

(CATIE, Turrialba (Costa Rica), 2012)
This thesis gathers and analyses the local knowledge regarding ecosystem services in coffee producing regions of Costa Rica, Guatemala and Nicaragua, and compares this knowledge across a range of farming conditions. The ...
A geospatial data integration framework for mapping and monitoring tropical landscape diversity in Costa Rica's San Juan-La Selva Biological Corridor
(CATIE, Turrialba (Costa Rica), 2006)
Landcover change has substantially reduced the amount of tropical rain forests since the 1950s. Little is known about the extent of remaining forest types. A multivariate analysis of 144 forest plots across Costa Rica's ...
