Exploration capacity versus specific enzymatic activity of ectomycorrhizas in response to primary productivity and soil phosphorus availability in Bornean tropical rainforests by Kei-ichi Okada, Daiki Yokoyama, Shin-ichiro Aiba, Kanehiro Kitayama

“…Here, we elucidated which attribute better explained the ECM enzymatic activity in response to different levels of soil phosphorus (P) and Nitrogen (N) availability in five Bornean tropical rainforests. We determined the surface area of ECM root tips as well as the enzymatic activities per ECM surface area for carbon (C), N and P degrading enzymes in each site. …”

NO_x and O₃ above a tropical rainforest: an analysis with a global and box model by C. E. Reeves, C. N. Hewitt, B. Langford, D. Stewart, P. Misztal, S. Moller, N. Warwick, X. Yang, G. D. Carver, P. J. Young, R. C. Pike, J. D. Lee, J. A. Pyle

“…We then use the output from two resolutions of the chemistry transport model p-TOMCAT to illustrate the ability of a global model chemical mechanism to capture the chemistry at the rainforest site. The basic model performance is good for NO_x and poor for ozone. …”

³¹P-NMR Metabolomics Revealed Species-Specific Use of Phosphorous in Trees of a French Guiana Rainforest by Albert Gargallo-Garriga, Jordi Sardans, Joan Llusià, Guille Peguero, Dolores Asensio, Romà Ogaya, Ifigenia Urbina, Leandro Van Langenhove, Lore T. Verryckt, Elodie A. Courtois, Clément Stahl, Oriol Grau, Otmar Urban, Ivan A. Janssens, Pau Nolis, Miriam Pérez-Trujillo, Teodor Parella, Josep Peñuelas

“…We used non-target ³¹P-NMR metabolic profiling to study the foliar P-metabolism of trees of a French Guiana rainforest. The objective was to test the hypotheses that P-use is species-specific, and that species diversity relates to species P-use and concentrations of P-containing compounds, including inorganic phosphates, orthophosphate monoesters and diesters, phosphonates and organic polyphosphates. …”

Effects of body size on the diet of Rivulus haraldsiolii (Aplocheiloidei: Rivulidae) in a coastal Atlantic Rainforest island stream, southern Brazil by Vinícius Abilhoa, Jean Ricardo Simões Vitule, Hugo Bornatowski, Fagner Breda de Lara, Glauco Ubiratan Kohler, Luciana Festti, Wanessa Priscila David do Carmo, Igor Kintopp Ribeiro

“…The effect of body size on the feeding habits of the little-known killifi sh Rivulus haraldsiolii, collected in a coastal Atlantic Rainforest island stream, was investigated. Samples were collected during a study trip on 13 July 2009 in a brackish stream located in the northern part of Ilha do Mel Island, one of the most important southern Atlantic Forest areas in southern Brazil. …”

Fruits of the forest: Human stable isotope ecology and rainforest adaptations in Late Pleistocene and Holocene (∼36 to 3 ka) Sri Lanka. by Roberts, P, Perera, N, Wedage, O, Deraniyagala, S, Perera, J, Eregama, S, Petraglia, MD, Lee-Thorp, JA

“…Sri Lanka has yielded some of the earliest dated fossil evidence for Homo sapiens (∼38-35,000 cal. years BP [calibrated years before present]) in South Asia, within a region that is today covered by tropical rainforest. Archaeozoological and archaeobotanical evidence indicates that these hunter-gatherers exploited tropical forest resources, yet the contribution of these resources to their overall subsistence strategies has, as in other Late Pleistocene rainforest settings, remained relatively unexplored. …”
