Seeds , Seedlings , and Gaps Size Matters A study in the tropical rain forest of Guyana
Growth rates of seedlings of eight tropical rain forest tree species were compared under five different canopy openness levels (FU and 50, 200, 800, 3200 m gaps). RGR exhibited a positive relation with canopy openness with species attaining their highest RGR at the 800 m (4 species) or 3200 m (3 species) gaps. Seed mass and RGR were negatively related. The increase in RGR between small and larg...
متن کاملEcology. Coral reef biodiversity--habitat size matters.
Coral reefs are the most diverse of all marine ecosystems (1), with estimates of reef species ranging from 600,000 to more than 9 million species worldwide (2, 3). This biodiversity is most pronounced in the western Pacific and Indian Oceans (1, 4), but decreases with increasing distance from the Indo-Australian archipelago. For example, reefs in the central Indo-Pacific have more than 10 times...
