Soil acidification and adaptations of plants and microorganisms in Bornean tropical forests (2014, background): “In contrast to the dominance of fast-growing species and the exclusion of slow-growing ones on nutrient-rich soils, slow-growing Dipterocarpaceae can exhibit high species richness by acquiring tolerance to acidic soil environments (Baillie et al. 1987; Ashton 1988; Paoli et al. 2006).”
Using k-nn and discriminant analyses to classify rain forest types in a Landsat TM image over northern Costa Rica (2008, background): “…remote sensing in a systematic and credible fashion, which accounts for the floristic variation in lowland rain forests (Clark et al., 1998, 1999; Paoli et al., 2006; Phillips et al., 2003; Potts et al., 2002; Ruokolainen et al., 1998; Tuomisto et al., 1995; Tuomisto & Poulsen, 1996; Tuomisto et…”
Developmental changes in habitat associations of tropical trees (2007, background): “In a separate study of habitat associations in Borneo, Paoli et al. (2006) found that only two out of 16 Dipterocarp species were significantly associated with the same habitat at both the juvenile and adult stages (defined as 1– 10 cm d.b.h. and ≥ 10 cm d.b.h., respectively).”
Ectomycorrhizal Associations of the Dipterocarpaceae (2012, background): “Mycorrhizas are important as they extend roots’ nutrient depletion zones, especially for poorly mobile inorganic nutrients such as phosphorus (P) that are found at especially low concentrations in many tropical soils (Proctor et al. 1983, Brearley 2003, Brearley et al. 2004, Paoli et al. 2006).”
Liana habitat associations and community structure in a Bornean lowland tropical forest (2006, background): “…soils (udult) than sandstone hill (humult) soils in northwestern Borneo at Lambir Hills, Sarawak (Palmiotto et al. 2004), and total carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus were greater on alluvium than sedimentary or granitic soils in Gunung Palung National Park in western Borneo (Paoli et al. 2006).”
Beyond description: the active and effective way to infer processes from spatial patterns. (2009, background): “In these and other cases there were implicit or explicit statements (e.g., Borcard et al. 2004, Paoli et al. 2006) that correlation does not imply causation and that processes can only be deduced via experimental manipulation (Levin 1992, Silvertown and Wilson 1994).”
