This biome includes tropical seasonal forests, which occur in humid tropical climates with a pronounced dry season, as well as tropical rainforests. Tropical seasonal forests are characterized by a mix of evergreen and deciduous species, with some forest types dominated solely by deciduous species. ...
Although tropical forests differ substantially in form and function, they are often represented as a single biome in global change models, hindering understanding of how different tropical forests will respond to environmental change. The response of the tropical forest biome to environmental change is ...
Tropical dry forest, biome of any open woodland in tropical areas that have a long dry season followed by a season of heavy rainfall. In such a seasonal climate, the trees usually shed their leaves during the dry season and come into leaf at the start of
Competition: while there is lots of energy in the rainforest system, life is not easy for most species that inhabit the biome. In fact, the rainforest is an intensively competitive place, with species developing incredible strategies and innovations to survive, encouraging specialization. ...
The comparison is performed through a case study on the Seasonally Dry Tropical Forest (SDTF) biome using herbarium data of habitat specialist species. Results Current biome maps of South America perform poorly in depicting SDTF distribution. The poor performance of the maps can be attributed to ...
map. This can be explained by the nature of this site, a forest-savanna mosaic, where the meanTCH of all herbaceous and shrubby savannas is lower than the height of the smallest 1-ha forest stand (ie., 16.4 m) found in model training set (Fig.8A). However, this proportion ...
Here, we introduce a new approach to map forest degradation caused by logging, fire, and road construction based on deep learning (DL), henceforth called DL-DEGRAD, using very high spatial (4.77 m) and bi-annual to monthly temporal resolution of the Planet NICFI imagery. We applied DL-...

Tropical rainforest biome is an ecology or ecosystem composed of mainly vegetation community where the trees are closely spaced, and the crowns interact with each other to result in an unbroken canopy of plants.
The tropical rainforest biome is an ecosystem that covers about 7% of the Earth’s surface. They are found all over the world but the majority of the tropical rainforest lies in South America in Brazil. The weather in the tropical rainforest is rainy y
