Souza, Saimo R.; Veloso, Maria D.M.; Espírito-Santo, Mário M.; Silva, Jhonathan O.; Sánchez-Azofeifa, Arturo; Souza e Brito, Betânia G.; Fernandes, Geraldo Wilson, 2019, "Replication Data for: Litterfall dynamics along a successional gradient in a Brazilian tropical dry forest", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/97TTEC, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:8QF8qJCMznrZVyWeAdd66w== [fileUNF]
ABSTRACT Background: This study aimed to determine the influence of soil traits, vegetation structure and climate on litterfall dynamics along a successional gradient in a tropical dry forest (TDF) in southeastern Brazil. We used a chronosequence design consisting of three successional stages (early, intermediate, and old-growth) defined based on f...

Dupin, Mariana GV; Espírito-Santo, Mário M; Leite, Marcos E; O Silva, Jhonathan; Rocha, André M; Barbosa, Rômulo S; Anaya, Felisa C, 2019, "Replication Data for: Land use policies and deforestation in Brazilian tropical dry forests between 2000 and 2015", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/JZ2Z1P, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:qakVLaFjkEgq9QgVKqAuYA== [fileUNF]
ABSTRACT Tropical Dry Forests (TDFs) have been broadly converted into pastures and crops, with direct consequences to biodiversity, ecosystem services, and social welfare. Such land use and cover changes (LUCC) usually are strongly influenced by government environmental and development policies. The present study aimed at analyzing LUCC in Brazilia...

Hilje, Branko; Stack, Shauna; Sanchez-Azofeifa, Arturo, 2019, "Replication Data for: Lianas Abundance is Positively Related with the Avian Acoustic Community in Tropical Dry Forests", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/U2HVB6, Harvard Dataverse, V1
ABSTRACT Dry forests are important sources of biodiversity where lianas are highly abundant given their ability to grow during times of drought and as a result of secondary growth processes. Lianas provide food and shelter for fauna such as birds, but there are no studies assessing the influence of liana abundance on birds in dry forests. Here we e...

La adaptación de la ciudad de Hermosillo al medio natural que la rodea, caracterizado por la exposición periódica a altas temperaturas, implica contar con mecanismos de previsión y mitigación de los efectos de las temperaturas extremas sin menoscabo del desarrollo de las actividades económicas ni de la calidad de vida (Varady, Scott, Wilder, Moreho...

Sirimarco, Marina Ximena, 2019, "Replication Data for: Water regulation by grasslands: A global meta‐analysis", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/XNPLRC, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:c/qm34ddfcBjWkNL5zd4Aw== [fileUNF]
Grasslands have been modified and replaced worldwide and have affected water regulation ecosystem services. In order to support public policies attending to the consequences of different grassland modifications and replacements, general patterns and models about their consequences on water regulation are needed. We quantitatively meta‐analysed the...

Stan, Kayla; Sánchez-Azofeifa, Arturo, 2019, "Replication Data for: Deforestation and secondary growth in Costa Rica along the path of development", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/7R2HNP, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:F7bon4crJU+Q24fjv5Xrog== [fileUNF]
Over the past 50 years, Costa Rica has experienced extensive landscape changes. It is, therefore, important to understand the historical changes that have occurred and how the forests will change in the future, which provides the objective of this study. To determine the historical deforestation trends and link them to the different biogeophysical...

Central and South America tropical dry forest (TDF) is a water-limited biome with a high number of endemic species and numerous ecosystem services which has experienced a boom in research in the last decade. Although the number of case studies across these seasonal, water-limited, tropical forests has increased, there has not been a comprehensive r...

Guzmán Q., J. Antonio; Sánchez-Azofeifa, Arturo; Rivard, Benoit, 2019, "Replication Data for: Differences in Leaf Temperature between Lianas and Trees in the Neotropical Canopy", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/WVMZYW, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:3TlTZxsH2EVSpcaTP77Aug== [fileUNF]
ABSTRACT: Leaf temperature (Tleaf) influences photosynthesis and respiration. Currently, there is a growing interest in including lianas in productivity models due to their increasing abundance and their detrimental effects in the carbon stock of tropical ecosystems. Therefore, understanding the differences of Tleaf between lianas and trees is impo...
