Abstract:
... Tropical dry forests (TDFs) on the Pacific Coast of Mexico experience seasonal droughts and very infrequent direct hurricane disturbance. Over a 4-year period, two hurricanes made landfall in the Chamela-Cuixmala Biosphere Reserve, Hurricane Jova (category 2) in October 2011 and Hurricane Patricia (category 4) in October 2015. Our permanent long-term watershed-scale research program in the reserve ...

Abstract:
... The objective of this study was to compare the vegetation structure and soil properties among old-growth tropical dry forests representing three categories of grazing intensity by cattle (light, moderate and heavy grazing) and a category of 20-30-yr-old secondary forest experiencing occasional grazing in a locality in northwestern Mexico. Within each forest type, three 0.1ha plots located in diffe ...
