Effects of landscape composition and site land-use intensity on secondary succession in a tropical dry forest

2021-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Regenerating forests after agricultural land abandonment are increasingly common in human-modified tropical landscapes. These secondary forests preserve biodiversity and provide multiple ecosystem services, but such important roles depend on their recovery rates, which can be difficult to predict. Recovery is expected to occur faster when landscape composition favors seed dispersal to the regenerating site, and wh...
