Linking topography, soil variability, and early successional vegetation in abandoned gold mines in the tropical rainforest of Colombia's Chocó Biogeographic region

Soil fertility heterogeneity is one of the main factors affecting early recovery and plant succession toward a target plant community. This study examined the influence of topography on the diversity and composition of plant communities established in areas degraded by opencast mining in Chocó, Colo...
