ABSTRACT Tropical dry forest trees have high resprouting ability, which may be useful for ecological restoration purposes. However, ability is affected by the type and severity of disturbance. This study described regeneration through in a seasonally deciduous Central Brazil, six months after being subjected to gradient In order expand limestone quarry, 10 ha were deforested May 2013, creating areas with three increasing levels disturbance: Clear-Cutting, Stump Removal 5-20 cm Topsoil...
Abstract Background: Amazonia is well known for its high natural regeneration capacity; this reason, passive restoration normally recommended the recovery of degraded forests. However, highly deforested landscapes in southern require active restoration. Since methods can shape quality and speed early forest recovery, study aimed to verify how pushes non-resilient sites towards recovery. Methods: We evaluated succession at sites, i.e. soil plowing, direct seeding pioneer species seedling...
Amazonia is well known for its high natural regeneration capacity; this reason, passive restoration normally recommended the recovery of degraded forests. However, highly deforested landscapes in southern require active restoration. Since methods can shape quality and speed early forest recovery, study aimed to verify how pushes sites stably covered with exotic grasses towards recovery. We evaluated succession at sites, i.e., soil plowing, direct seeding pioneer species, seedling stock...
Background and aims – Hummingbirds are dependent specialized on nectar-feeding, many plants depend upon them for pollination. However, the degree of plant-pollinator interdependence varies greatly among species; thus, information plant mating systems availability resources may help to clarify dependence interacting organisms. The goals this study were (1) quantify floral resource available during flowering Dicliptera squarrosa Nees comparison with other co-flowering ornithophilous species,...
Savannas and grasslands have lost almost 50% of their original cover worldwide. Therefore, the development methods information on open-canopy ecosystem restoration is urgent for inclusion these ecosystems into global regional priorities. In Brazilian savanna, most diverse savanna world, efforts focused open been virtually absent, but increased in last 10 years. Such are frequently threatened by invasive exotic grasses (IEG) that invade dominate areas excluding native species, oftentimes...
