Secondary forests of central Panama increase in similarity to old-growth forest over time in shade tolerance but not species composition (2013, background): “Gustavia superba dominates SF elsewhere in the Panama Canal watershed, and its abundance in some regenerating SF sites may be because its large seeds are dispersed into disturbed sites by rodents and seedling survival in open pasture is high (Hooper et al. 2004).”
Testing the species traits-environment relationships: the fourth-corner problem revisited. (2008, methodology): “Although methods designed for the analysis of three tables have been available for a few years, there are few published applications (but see Barbaro et al. 2000, Charest et al. 2000, Ribera et al. 2001, Hausner et al. 2003, Hooper et al. 2004).”
Disturbance‐Mediated Drift in Tree Functional Groups in Amazonian Forest Fragments (2007, background): “Most forest fragmentation studies examining tree communities have focused on the impact of edge creation and vegetation changes along the edges of forest fragments (Malcolm 1994, Fox et al. 1997, Laurance et al. 1998, Sizer & Tanner 1999, Hooper et al. 2004).”
Allelopathy: a tool for weed management in forest restoration (2012, background): “Incorporating allelopathy into forest restoration strategies: a case study from Panama In many parts of the tropics, weedy C 4 grasses colonize degraded deforested areas (Batianoff and Franks 1998; Hooper et al. 2004; Jones et al. 2004; Nepstad et al. 1996; Wishnie et al. 2007).”
Species Richness, Forest Structure, and Functional Diversity During Succession in the New Guinea Lowlands (2014, background): “This can be challenging as the trajectory of ecological succession in secondary forests can vary due to factors such as fire, characteristics of remnant vegeta- tion, past land-use history and intensity, and soil properties (Moran et al. 2000, Guariguata & Ostertag 2001, Hooper et al. 2004).”
A comparison of statistical approaches to analyzing community convergence between natural and constructed oyster reefs (2006, background): “, 2003; Allison, 2004), the approach is controversial (Legendre and Anderson, 1999; Clarke and Warwick, 1998; Hooper et al., 2004).”
Barriers to forest regeneration of deforested and abandoned land in Panama (2005, methodology): “To study the effect of fire on tree species regeneration, we repeated the experimental design as detailed above at each site 20‐50 m from the pre-existing experimental plots, and established a 15-m firebreak between the two sets of plots ( Hooper, Legendre & Condit 2004, electronic appendix B). Plo”
Lessons from primary succession for restoration of severely damaged habitats (2009, background): “In Panama, fire inhibited seed germination of many species, leading to competitive dominance by a few pioneer species (Hooper et al. 2004).”
