Arrival and survival in tropical treefall gaps

Three issues that define probable regeneration at a given site are the pattern of seed arrival in gaps and beneath the canopy, proportion of forest area in gap vs closed canopy and survival to reproductive maturity of seeds landing in gaps and beneath the canopy. The arrival and survival of tropical...

Zusammenfassung:Three issues that define probable regeneration at a given site are the pattern of seed arrival in gaps and beneath the canopy, proportion of forest area in gap vs closed canopy and survival to reproductive maturity of seeds landing in gaps and beneath the canopy. The arrival and survival of tropical trees are discussed from this perspective.
