A common framework for modelling the regeneration of disturbed tropical forests
15/08/2023
Until now, there has been no model of forest regeneration trajectories, considering disturbed forests within a common framework, along a gradient of disturbance intensity, according to different types of disturbance. This model, developed by an international team of researchers including three members of the UPR Forêts et Sociétés and published in the journal Ecological Modelling, makes it possible to understand and compare the way in which vegetation attributes overlap in disturbed forests. The abstract of this publication is reproduced below.
