Tropical rain forest structure, tree growth and dynamics along a 2700-m elevational transect in Costa Rica.
Rapid biological changes are expected to occur on tropical elevational gradients as species migrate upslope or go extinct in the face of global warming. We established a series of 9 1-ha plots in old-growth tropical rainforest in Costa Rica along a 2700 m relief elevational gradient to carry out lon...
