- Hydraulic conductivity traits predict growth rates and adult stature of 40 Asian tropical tree species better than wood density (2012, background): “Evenwhere a negative correlation betweenwood density and growth was found, it was often relatively weak (Nascimento et al. 2005; Osunkoya et al. 2007; Chave et al. 2009).”
- Definition and estimation of vital rates from repeated censuses: Choices, comparisons and bias corrections focusing on trees (2017, background): “An alternative way to assess the reliability of count based estimates is to assume that individual demographic events are independent—while unrealistic the resulting confidence intervals can be viewed as indicating the minimum amount of uncertainty (Condit, Hubbell, & Foster, 1995; Harsch et al., 20”
- On the link between functional traits and growth rate: meta‐analysis shows effects change with plant size, as predicted (2016, background): “…1996 (b) Diameter (cm) * * * * ** * 0 1 10 80 Fayolle et al 2012 Chaturvedi et al 2011 Read et al 2011 Kohyama et al 2003 Chao et al 2008 Nascimento et al 2005 MullerLandau 2004 Easdale & Healey 2009 MartinezVilalta et al 2010 Fan et al 2012 Herault et al 2011 Poorter et al 2008 Wright…”
- Causes and implications of the correlation between forest productivity and tree mortality rates (2011, background): “Consequently, subcanopy species often have higher mortality rates than canopy species, even when trees of the same sizes and light environments are compared (Manokaran and Kochummen 1987, Korning and Balslev 1994, Nascimento et al. 2005, King et al. 2006a).”
- Growth and wood density predict tree mortality in Amazon forests (2008, background): “This trait reflects trade-offs between resource acquisition (e.g. short life span and fast growth in height and stem size) and survival investment (e.g. longevity, slow growth and damage-resistant stems; Loehle 1987; Nascimento et al. 2005; King et al. 2006b; van Gelder et al. 2006).”
- Slow‐growing species cope best with drought: evidence from long‐term measurements in a tropical semi‐deciduous moist forest of Central Africa (2013, background): “The species grouping at M’Baïki was consistent with those established in other moist forests (Lieberman et al. 1985; Swaine & Whitmore 1988; Condit, Hubbell & Foster 1996; Favrichon 1998; Poorter et al. 2003; Nascimento et al. 2005; Chazdon et al. 2010) and conformed to the big picture that species ”
