Fine-grained water availability drives divergent trait selection in Amazonian trees Open
Water availability is an important driver of plant functional biogeography. Most studies focus on the effects of precipitation, and neglect the contribution of groundwater as a source when the water table depth (WTD) is accessible to roots…

Near Infrared Spectroscopy Facilitates Rapid Identification of Both Young and Mature Amazonian Tree Species Open
Precise identification of plant species requires a high level of knowledge by taxonomists and presence of reproductive material. This represents a major limitation for those working with seedlings and juveniles, which differ morphologicall…
