The Pantanal is the largest wetland in the world, characterized by high biodiversity, but large areas have been invaded by Vochysia divergens, a flood-adapted pioneer and native tree of the riparian forest and Brazilian Savanna. Seasonality in rainfall causes annual rhythms in the tree’s physiology, in which climatic stress factors induce a cambial dormancy in trees and, in consequence, growth zones in the trunk. Current analysis evaluates the seasonal variation of the diameter increase of V. divergens specimens in a seasonal floodable forest of the Northern Brazilian Pantanal. Field sampling was conducted between January and December 2012. Air temperature, relative humidity and precipitation were measured at a micrometeorological station, water level was... |
