Tropical forest soils store a third of the global terrestrial carbon and control carbon dioxide (CO2) terrestrial effluxes to the atmosphere produced by root and microbial respiration. Soil CO2 efflux varies in time and space and is known to be strongly influenced by soil temperature and water content. However, little is known about the influence of seasonality on soil CO2 efflux, especially in tropical dry forests. This study evaluated soil CO2 efflux, soil temperature, and soil volumetric water content in a semideciduous tropical forest of the Yucatan Peninsula under two sites (flat areas close to and far from hills), and three seasons: dry, wet, and early dry (a transition between the rainy and dry seasons) throughout a year. Additionally, six 24-h periods of soil CO2 efflux were measured within these three seasons. The mean annual soil CO2 efflux was 4±2.2 μmol CO2 m-2 s-1, like the mean soil CO2 efflux during the early dry season. In all seasons, soil CO2 efflux increased linearly with soil moisture, which explained 45% of the spatial-temporal variation of soil CO2 efflux. Soil CO2 efflux was higher close to than far from hills in some months. The daily variation of soil CO2 efflux was less important than its spatial and seasonal variation likely due to small diel variations in temperature. Transition seasons are common in many tropical dry forests, and they should be taken into consideration to have a better understanding of the annual soil CO2 efflux, especially under future climate-change scenarios. © 2022 Mexican Society of Soil Science.

Diversidad arbórea y carbono almacenado en selvas bajo manejo forestal comunitario en Yucatán, México

Tree diversity and carbon stored in communally managed tropical forests in Yucatan, Mexico

El manejo forestal comunitario sustentable favorece la economía de las comunidades rurales sin comprometer la capacidad de regeneración ni los servicios ecosistémicos que brindan las selvas, como el almacenamiento de carbono. Esta actividad ha sido ampliamente documentada en la Península de Yucatán, pero escasamente evaluada en el estado de Yucatán. En esta investigación se hizo una comparación de composición arbórea, estructura, diversidad y carbono almacenado en la biomasa aérea en tres áreas de selva mediana subcaducifolia con diferente tiempo de regeneración después de un aprovechamiento forestal en el ejido San Agustín (AAF1, AAF10 y AAF+50 años). En cada una se establecieron dos conglomerados conformados por cuatro parcelas circulares de 400 m 2, en las que se identificaron y midieron (diámetro y altura) todos los árboles de diámetro mayor o igual a 7.5 cm. Se analizó la distribución de tamaños de los árboles, la diversidad de especies, su valor de importancia relativo y la biomasa aérea (a partir de ecuaciones alométricas). La especie más dominante fue Bursera simaruba y el AAF+50 presentó la menor dominancia. La distribución de clases diamétricas no varió entre las áreas de aprovechamiento y mostró un patrón de J invertida, lo cual sugiere un alto potencial de regeneración. La diversidad tampoco varió entre las áreas de aprovechamiento, mientras que el carbono almacenado en la biomasa aérea sí, siendo mayor en el AAF+50 (65.2 t /ha). Los resultados indican que el plan de manejo establecido por el ejido no ha afectado la diversidad arbórea ni su potencial de regeneración y permite un alto almacenamiento de carbono.

Forests that regrow naturally on abandoned fields are important for restoring biodiversity and ecosystem services, but can they also preserve the distinct regional tree floras? Using the floristic composition of 1215 early successional forests (≤20 years) in 75 human-modified landscapes across the Neotropic realm, we identified 14 distinct floristic groups, with a between-group dissimilarity of 0.97. Floristic groups were associated with location, bioregions, soil pH, temperature seasonality, and water availability. Hence, there is large continental-scale variation in the species composition of early successional forests, which is mainly associated with biogeographic and environmental factors but not with human disturbance indicators. This floristic distinctiveness is partially driven by regionally restricted species belonging to widespread genera. Early secondary forests contribute therefore to restoring and conserving the distinctiveness of bioregions across the Neotropical realm, and forest restoration initiatives should use local species to assure that these distinct floras are maintained.

Data capturing multiple axes of tree size and shape, such as a tree's stem diameter, height and crown size, underpin a wide range of ecological research—from developing and testing theory on forest structure and dynamics, to estimating forest carbon stocks and their uncertainties, and integrating remote sensing imagery into forest monitoring programmes. However, these data can be surprisingly hard to come by, particularly for certain regions of the world and for specific taxonomic groups, posing a real barrier to progress in these fields. To overcome this challenge, we developed the Tallo database, a collection of 498,838 georeferenced and taxonomically standardized records of individual trees for which stem diameter, height and/or crown radius have been measured. These data were collected at 61,856 globally distributed sites, spanning all major forested and non-forested biomes. The majority of trees in the database are identified to species (88%), and collectively Tallo includes data for 5163 species distributed across 1453 genera and 187 plant families. The database is publicly archived under a CC-BY 4.0 licence and can be access from: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.6637599. To demonstrate its value, here we present three case studies that highlight how the Tallo database can be used to address a range of theoretical and applied questions in ecology—from testing the predictions of metabolic scaling theory, to exploring the limits of tree allometric plasticity along environmental gradients and modelling global variation in maximum attainable tree height. In doing so, we provide a key resource for field ecologists, remote sensing researchers and the modelling community working together to better understand the role that trees play in regulating the terrestrial carbon cycle. © 2022 The Authors.
