Wood growth of Tabebuia barbata (E. Mey.) Sandwith (Bignoniaceae) and Vatairea guianensis Aubl. (Fabaceae) in Central Amazonian black-water (igapó) and white-water (várzea) floodplain forests (2009, background): “In Central and Western Amazonia 60‐90% of the timber originates from floodplain forests ( Kvist and Nebel 2001; Worbes et al. 2001; Lima et al. 2005), due to the easy access and the low costs for harvesting, skidding and transport of the logs (Higuchi et al. 1994; Barros and Uhl 1995).”
