Evaluations for sustainable forest management: towards an adaptive standard for the evaluation of the ecological sustainability of forest management in Costa Rica
(Centro Agronómico Tropical de Investigación y Enseñanza (CATIE), 2002)
The evaluation of the sustainability of forest management is an integral measure in the maintenance of production, and the ecological and socioeconomic functions of forest systems and should consider both the fulfillment ...
Effects of forest clearing and land use on soil properties of two land use sequences in Cocori, Atlantic Zone of Costa Rica
(CATIE, Turrialba (Costa Rica). Atlantic Zone Programme Agricultural University Wageningen, Wageningen (Países Bajos) Ministerio de Agricultura y Ganadería, San José (Costa Rica), 1988)
This report describes the results of a study of the impact of forest clearing and land use on morphological, chemical and physical properties of the soil. Soil profile site studies were done in the Cocori area in the ...

Old-growth neotropical forests are shifting in species and trait composition
(2016)
Tropical forests have long been thought to be in stable state, but recent insights indicate that global change is leading to shifts in forest dynamics and species composition. These shifts may be driven by environmental ...
Altitude and community traits explain rain forest stand dynamics over a 2370-m altitudinal gradient in Costa Rica
(2021-12)
Stand dynamic rates in Earth’s vitally important tropical mountain rain forests are a central component of the response of these forests to global change, but their relationships to environmental gradients are poorly ...
