Secondary forests on anthropogenic soils in Brazilian Amazonia conserve agrobiodiversity

2010-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Throughout Brazilian Amazonia anthropogenic soils that are the product of pre-Columbian settlements are called Terra Preta de Índio (Indian Dark Earths, TPI). These soils are dramatically different from surrounding soils due to long-term human activity, but there is little information about how secondary forest succession is affected by these differences. We tested if community structure (density, richness and bas...
