A common framework to model recovery in disturbed tropical forests
Maurent, Eliott; Delgado, Diego; Finegan, Bryan; Ngo-Bieng, Marie Ange; y otros 5 autores más (Elsevier, 2023-06-11)Despite their exceptional biodiversity and carbon stocks, more than 80% of tropical forests are disturbed. However, a lot of interrogations remain around the ability of vegetation attributes in tropical forests to recover ... -
Above-ground biomass storage potential in primary rain forests managed for timber production in Costa Rica
Morrison Vila, Leslie; Ménager, Matthieu; Finegan, Bryan; Delgado, Diego; Casanoves, Fernando; Ángel, Luis; Salas, Aguilar; Castillo, Mavin; Hernández Sánchez, Luis Gustavo; y 5 autores más. (Elsevier, Ámsterdam (Países Bajos), 2021-07)Tropical forests play a fundamental role in mitigating climate change through storage of carbon in above- and below- ground biomass. Their mitigation potential is, however, affected by significant greenhouse gas emissions ... -
Altitude and community traits explain rain forest stand dynamics over a 2370-m altitudinal gradient in Costa Rica
Hernández Gordillo, Alba Lorena; Vilchez Mendoza, Sergio; Ngo Bieng, Marie Ange; Delgado, Diego; Finegan, Bryan (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 ... -
Altitude and species identity drive leaf litter decomposition rates of ten species on a 2950 m altitudinal gradient in Neotropical rain forests
Esquivel, Jimena; Park, Byung.P; Casanoves, Fernando; Delgado, Diego; Park, Go Eun; Finegan, Bryan (2019)Identifying the environmental factors controlling litter decomposition is key to understanding the magnitude and rates of nutrient cycling in tropical forests, and how they may be influenced by climate variability and ... -
Biomass of timber species in Central American secondary forests: Towards climate change mitigation through sustainable timber harvesting
Souza Oliveira, Maïri; Finegan, Bryan; Casanoves, Fernando; Delgado, Diego; Sepulveda, Norvin; Aguilar Porras, Adriana; Chamorro, María Alejandra; Morales Aymerich, Jean Pierre; Ngo Bieng, Marie Ange (Elsevier, Ámsterdam (Países Bajos), 2021-06)Sustainable management of secondary forests for timber production offers the opportunity to combine nature-based climate change mitigation with direct improvement of human livelihoods in the tropics, but this dual potential ... -
Dispersal limitation, soil, and fire affect functional properties of tropical secondary forests on abandoned cattle ranching landscapes
Álvarez, Francisco S; Finegan, Bryan; Delgado, Diego; Ramos, Zayra; Utrera, Luis P; Granda, Vanessa (2021)Forest age is a major predictor of secondary forest functional properties and through the chronosequence approach continues to be a principal focus in local, landscape, and regional-scale studies of secondary succession. ... -
Disturbance and the elevation ranges of woody plant species in the mountains of Costa Rica
Muñoz Mazón, Miguel; Klanderud, Kari; Finegan, Bryan; Veintimilla, Darío; Bermeo, Diego; Murrieta, Eduardo; Delgado, Diego; Sheil, Douglas (John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2019) -
Documentación de procesos de restauración ecológica asistida: islas de cultivo y plantaciones de melina en Guanacaste, Costa Rica
Sierra-Parra, Ana María; Quijano Prieto, Nicolás E; Herrera-Martínez, Christian G; Villalobos Soto, Roger; Delgado, Diego; Gutiérrez Leitón, Milena (Universidad Autónoma del Estado de México, 2022)Se recopilan las lecciones aprendidas de los procesos de restauración asistida útiles para promover esta actividad en territorios ecológicamente similares con el objetivo de documentar el contexto histórico y el proceso ... -
Drivers of tropical rainforest composition and alpha diversity patterns over a 2,520 m altitudinal gradient
Veintimilla, Dario; Ngo Bieng, Marie A; Delgado, Diego; Vilchez-Mendoza, Sergio; Zamora, Nelson; Finegan, Bryan (John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2019) -
Multi-dimensional temperature sensitivity of protected tropical mountain rain forests

But there are no specific ... -
Soil resistance and recovery during neotropical forest succession
van der Sander, Masha T; Powers, Jennifer S; Norden, Natalia; Salgado Negret, Beatriz; Bongers, Frans; Delgado, Diego; Dent, Daisy H; Dupuy, Juan Manuel; Finegan, Bryan; Jakovac, Catarina C; Meave, Jorge A; Muñoz, Rodrigo; Piotto, Daniel; Cáceres Siani, Yasmani; Sanchez Azofeifa, G. Arturo; Poorter, Lourens; y 15 autores más (The Royal Society Publishing, 2022-01-24)The recovery of soil conditions is crucial for successful ecosystem restoration and, hence, for achieving the goals of the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration. Here, we assess how soils resist forest conversion and agricultural ... -
