Aboveground biomass in secondary montane forests in Peru: Slow carbon recovery in agroforestry legacies

Aboveground biomass in secondary montane forests in Peru: Slow carbon recovery in agroforestry legacies

Andean tropical montane forests (TMF) are hotspots of biodiversity that provide fundamental hydrological services as well as carbon sequestration and storage. Agroforestry systems occupy large areas in the Andes but climatic pressures, market volatility and diseases may result inagroforest abandonme...
