Latin American Dendroecology Combining Tree-Ring Sciences and Ecology in a Megadiverse Territory /

Latin America is a megadiverse territory hosting several hotspots of plant diversity and many types of forest biomes, ecosystems and climate types, from tropical rainforest to semi-arid woodlands. This combination of diverse forests and climates generates multiple responses to ecological changes aff...
