Although trees have high economic, cultural and ecological value, increasing numbers of species are potentially at risk of extinction because of forest loss and degradation as a result of human activities, including overharvesting, fire and grazing.

In seasonally dry tropical forest (SDTF) plant trait variation has been associated with adaptation to light and water availability and a coordinated tolerance of plants to shortage of both resources has been proposed. We tested this hypothesis in a s

Biodiversity inventory as a tool for guiding conservation planning at a local scale is under used, especially in tropical countries where technical capacity is often limited. Here four inventory protocols (one ad hoc , one fixed count and two fixed a

Hard (high-contrast with pastures) and soft (low-contrast with old-fields) forest edges created by slash-and-burn agriculture have become common landscape features in regions dominated by neotropical montane forest. However, little is know about the

Approaches to the management of protected areas that involve the participation of local communities are now being widely promoted. However, the impacts of such community-based conservation initiatives on local communities remain poorly defined. This

Summary The rapid assessment of tropical plant biodiversity has become an important tool for the quantitative investigation of regional scale (between location) biogeographical patterns. However, the analysis presented here of local scale (within loc

The temperate forests of Chile are classified a biological ‘‘hotspot’’ as a result of their high species diversity and high endemism. However, they are being rapidly destroyed, with significant negative impacts on biodiversity. Three land-cov

Recent studies have highlighted the importance of different edge types in the modulation of edge-related responses associated with habitat fragmentation. Hard (high contrast with pastures) and soft (low contrast with old-fields) forest edges created

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of habitat edges on the probability of acorn germination of three oak species ( Quercus crassifolia Humb. and Bonpl., Quercus rugosa Nee and Quercus laurina Humb. and Bonpl.). The effects of edge ty

Community-based approaches to decision-making in the management of protected areas are increasingly being implemented in many areas. However information on the outcome of these approaches for conservation is often lacking. In this study, the effectiv
