• Composition and Dynamics of Functional Groups of Trees During Tropical Forest Succession in Northeastern Costa Rica (2010, background): “Other studies have shown that mature forest species are able to colonize early in succession (Finegan 1996, van Breugel et al. 2007, Franklin & Rey 2007, Ochoa-Gaona et al. 2007), emphasizing the importance of initial floristic composition in the determination of successional pathways and rates of…”
• Litterfall Dynamics Under Different Tropical Forest Restoration Strategies in Costa Rica (2011, background): “Patterns and dynamics of natural succession differ greatly at the stand scale within and between regions (Van Breugel et al. 2007), and, in some areas, the recovery of tropical forests can be strongly limited by a range of biotic and abiotic factors including lack of seed dispersal, seedling…”
• Functional diversity changes during tropical forest succession (2012, background): “As most of the changes in diversity take place in early succesional development (van Breugel et al., 2006, 2007), our 11 sites, overing the first 25 years of succession, provide us with a high esolution picture of early successional development.”
• Demographic drivers of successional changes in phylogenetic structure across life-history stages in plant communities (2012, background): “Moreover, even at late stages of succession, tree mortality can open new opportunities for the successful establishment of early-successional species (van Breugel et al. 2007).”
