IAI-Data-CRN_012_Marchesini_Water: Gravimetric soil water content during the massive flowering and death of the bamboo Chusquea culeou

Entry ID: IAIDIS786

[ Update this Record ]

Summary

Abstract: During 2001 a native forest in the South of Argentina experienced the
massive flowering and death of the bamboo Chusquea culeou, a dominant
understory species. We proposed to assess the impact of this event on:
a) the environmental factors and b) the population dynamics of forest
vegetation. We recorded air and soil temperature, relative air
humidity and light intensity under two conditions: death ...
