Tree morphology in seasonally dry montane forest in Argentina: Relationships with shade tolerance and nutrient shortage

2007-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Question: How does form (leaf and trunk morphology) relate to function (tolerance of shade and nutrient storage) in trees?Location: Los Toldos montane valley in NW Argentina.Methods: We analysed the relationships amongst (1) ten vegetative and four reproductive traits across 40 tree species, (2) a distribution based measure of recruitment under shade and (3) a distribution based measure of recruitment over a soil...
