Realm: Terrestrial
Climate: Tropical
Biome: Tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests
Central latitude: -22.825000
Central longitude: -47.105800
Duration: 4 years, from 1983 to 2004

789 records

132 distinct species

Across the time series Trichilia clausseni is the most frequently occurring species

Methods

The area of 1 ha was divided in 100 10x10m plots. All the trees and shrubs in each plot with a girth at breast height (GBH; 1.3 m from the ground) greater than 15 cm were registered 100 10x10m plots sampled in 4 years. Unit of abundance = IndCountInt, Unit of biomass = NA
