Effect of disturbance intensity on regeneration mechanisms in a tropical dry forest

We examined the effect of disturbances of varying intensity on the dominant modes of regeneration among woody plants in tropical dry forest in lowland Bolivia. Seed survival and density, mortality, height, crown area, and basal diameters of seedlings and sprouts were compared among four treatments of varying disturbance intensity (high-intensity bum, lowintensity bum, plant removal, and harvest...

Seed rain dynamics following disturbance exclusion in a secondary tropical dry forest in Morelos, Mexico.

In most of the legally protected areas in Mexico local inhabitants use natural resources, such as fire wood or cattle grazing. These frequent but low-intensity disturbances have consequences at various levels of the tropical ecosystems and strongly impact forest structure and its regeneration capacity. Despite their importance, the effects of these perturbations in many aspects of tropical fore...
