Book Description
Excerpt from Tree Growth in a Moist Tropical Forest of Puerto Rico Information on growth rates, both for individual trees and for forest stands, is vital to forest plan ning and management. Such information is needed for a variety of sitesand stand conditions in the moist tropical forests of the western hemisphere. In this paper, growth rates for individual trees are reported for two secondary stands and one mature stand in the Caribbean National Forest in Puerto Rico. Estimates are based on long-term measure ments, taken in 1957 and again in 1975, on more than individuals of 18 species. In addition, the variability in growth rates is related to species, crown position, diameter class, elevation (and simultaneously climate), and topographic position.

Tropical Forest Ecology and Management for the Anthropocene
Author: Grizelle González
Publisher: MDPI
ISBN: 3039219642
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
This Special Issue looks forward as well as backward to best analyze the forest conservation challenges of the Caribbean. This is made possible by 75 years of research and applications by the United States Department of Agriculture, International Institute of Tropical Forestry (the Institute) of Puerto Rico. It transforms Holocene-based scientific paradigms of the tropics into Anthropocene applications and outlooks of wilderness, managed forests, and urban environments. This volume showcases how the focus of the Institute’s programs is evolving to support sustainable tropical forest conservation despite uncertain conditions. The manuscripts showcased here highlight the importance of shared stewardship and a long-term, hands-on approach to conservation, research programs, and novel organizations intended to meet contemporary conservation challenges. Policies relevant to the Anthropocene, as well as the use of experiments to anticipate future responses of tropical forests to global warming, are reexamined in these pages. Urban topics include how cities can co-produce new knowledge to spark sustainable and resilient transformations. Long-term results and research applications of topics such as soil biota, migratory birds, tropical vegetation, substrate chemistry, and the tropical carbon cycle are also described in the volume. Moreover, the question of how to best use land on a tropical island is addressed. This volume is intended to be of interest to all actors involved in long-term sustainable forest management and research in light of the historical lessons and future directions that may come out of a better understanding of tropical cities and forests in the Anthropocene epoch.
