Microhabitat associations of vascular epiphytes in a wet tropical forest canopy (2015, background): “Microhabitats in tropical canopies are formed by differences in environmental conditions (relative humidity, vapour pressure deficit; Cardel us & Chazdon 2005; de la Rosa-Manzano et al. 2014), structure (branch size, tree size; Johansson 1974; Hietz & Hietz-Siefert 1995) and resources (atmospheric d”
Vertical stratification of vascular epiphytes in submontane and montane forest of the Bolivian Andes: the importance of the understory (2007, background): “This complexity is due to microclimatic gradients (Walsh 1996; Freiberg 1997), variation in substrate/ moisture availability, and specific characters of the host trees (Nadkarni 1984; Freiberg and Freiberg 2000; Cardelús and Chazdon 2005).”
Life in the treetops: ecophysiological strategies of canopy epiphytes in a tropical montane cloud forest (2015, background): “These conditions lead to a canopy microclimate that is considerably drier than in the understory (Cardelús and Chazdon 2005, Watkins and Cardelús 2010).”
Vascular epiphyte distribution patterns: explaining the mid‐elevation richness peak (2006, methodology): “We selected trees at random from 15 to 20 healthy, intact, large individuals suitable for climbing, except at the 30 m site, where only two tree species were sampled due to restrictions from a study on canopy microclimate at this site (Cardelús & Chazdon 2005).”
Ferns in an Angiosperm World: Cretaceous Radiation into the Epiphytic Niche and Diversification on the Forest Floor (2012, background): “Where the soil does occur, depths vary from 0 to 20 cm (Cardelús and Chazdon 2005), and quantitative measurements of canopy soil within large trees are significantly lower than on the forest floor (1.85 t ha 1 in the canopy vs. 5360 t ha 1 in the top 10 cm of the forest floor; C.
