Canopy openness and lai estimates in two seasonally deciduous forests on limestone outcrops in central Brazil using hemispherical photographs Estimativas de abertura do dossel e ín... by André Rosalvo Terra Nascimento, Jeanine Maria Felfili Fagg, Christopher William Fagg

“…The mean canopy opening was 54.0% (&plusmn;9.36) for Fazenda Sabonete and 64.6% (&plusmn;11.8) in Fazenda Forquilha, with both sites presenting significant differences in the opening estimates (P < 0.05). Their floristic richness and structure also differed with the more open canopy forest, Forquilha, being richer and denser, suggesting the need for further studies on species-environment relationships in these forests.…”

“…Since the flora of seasonally flooded forests in southern and southeastern Brazilian restingas apparently is not restricted to these formations, it is reasonable to conclude that floristic pattern changes in the vegetation of these areas may be the result of the proximity of species' propagule sources (i.e., those with high soil flood tolerance), plus the phytogeography of the species linked to distribution limits caused by climatic conditions.…”
