- Abstract
El manejo forestal puede modificar la estructura y la calidad de la madera. En este estudio se evaluó el efecto de un aprovechamiento forestal sobre la formación de madera en árboles remanentes. En un bosque de Abies religiosa (oyamel) intervenido con un aclareo del 50 % de área basal durante 2014, se inventariaron 10 sitios de muestreo (1000 m2). Se analizaron mediante técnicas dendrocronológicas 80 núcleos de crecimiento provenientes de 40 árboles remanentes. Se evaluó la microdensidad y las características celulares de la madera tardía. Los anillos de crecimiento de Abies religiosa (oyamel) presentaron una buena delimitación entre madera temprana y madera tardía en la cronología de 90 años desarrollada. El aprovechamiento forestal incremento en 42,4 % el ancho de anillo; la microdensidad varió de 189 kg·m-3 a 417 kg·m-3 ( = 335 kg·m-3); las traqueidas presentaron una disminución de 8,02 % en el espesor de la pared celular y el diámetro del lumen aumento un 29,8 %. Se identificó una fila de canales traumáticos fechada en 2014, posiblemente relacionados con el estrés de la corta. Las modificaciones en la anatomía de la madera causaron una variación en la microdensidad de la madera, que repercute en la cuantificación volumétrica y de biomasa a nivel del rodal.

- Abstract
Precipitation information ;Metadata of the 22 databases analyzed in our study. Stem inclusion criterion refers to the diameter at breast height (dbh), except for data from Vieira et al., who used height values. The data used in the analysis from Chazdon and Griffith et al. are for repeated measures over three years, given the small number of plots (n = 6). For these databases, the age range in the chronosequences corresponds to the variation in the last year sampled. S. G. Letcher database include some plots studied by R. L. Chazdon. ;Effect of precipitation on the predictability of successional trajectories. Predictability was measured as the goodness-of-fit (R²adj) of the relationship between each vegetation attribute and forest stand age. ;Effect of precipitation, minimum stem diameter, and plot size on the recovery rate of species richness, density of individuals and basal area along secondary succession. We estimated recovery rate through the equation: [(15 years predicted value – 20 years predicted value)/5], where 5 corresponds to the age interval in years. The predicted values for the fixed age of 15 and 20 years were obtained from the relationship between each vegetation attribute and forest stand age, using generalized additive models.;Effect of landscape forest cover on the predictability of successional trajectories considering differently sized concentric landscapes (i.e. buffers of 1 to 10-km radius, at 1 km intervals). Predictability was measured as the goodness-of-fit (R²adj) of the relationship between each vegetation attribute and forest stand age using generalized additive models. Because the deviance explained by the models was highest when considering landscapes of 4-km radius for all vegetation attributes (in bold), this landscape radius was selected as the scale of forest cover effect (Jackson & Fahrig 2015).

- Abstract
Wood density is a fundamental parameter for the accurate esti-mation of tree biomass in forest ecosystems. The semi-evergreen forest of theMexican southeast is characterized by the high diversity of trees, so that it isnecessary to study the variations in wood density. The objective of the studywas to determine the variation in wood density of the dominant species of thesemi-evergreen forest and to generate regression models with wood diameter. Wecollected 3,260 wood samples of 23 species of three diameter categories (thick,medium, and thin). The volume of wood was measured with the fluid displacementtechnique and the dry mass was determined in an oven at 70ºC for 72 hours.Wood density was calculated as the ratio of mass to volume. Wood density variedsignificantly between species,Gymnanthes lucidaSw., being the largest with 0.85g/cm3, andBursera simaruba(L.) Sarg, the smallest with 0.37 g/cm3. Regressionanalysis showed that 20 out of 23 species presented a positive relationship betweenwood density and diameter size. It was concluded that wood density varied byspecies and diameter size of the tree in these forest ecosystems. The resultsare useful for modeling the dynamics of tree biomass accumulation of primaryand secondary forests that are constantly changing in their structure and speciescomposition., La densidad de madera es un parámetro fundamental para laestimación precisa de biomasa arbórea en ecosistemas forestales.La selvasubperennifolia del sureste mexicano se caracteriza por la alta diversidad arbórea,por lo cual es necesario estudiar las variaciones de densidad de madera. El objetivodel estudio fue determinar la variación de densidad de madera de las especiesdominantes de la selva subperennifolia y generar modelos de regresión con elgrosor diamétrico de madera. Se colectaron 3 260 muestras de madera de 23especies, en tres categorías diamétricas (gruesa, mediana y delgada). Se midió elvolumen de madera con la técnica de desplazamiento de fluidos y se determinóla masa seca en un horno a 70ºC por 72 horas. La densidad de madera secalculó como la proporción de masa entre volumen. La densidad de madera variósignificativamente entre las especies, siendo la mayorGymnanthes lucidaSw., con0.85 g/cm3y la menorBursera simaruba(L.) Sarg, con 0.37 g/cm3. El análisis deregresión demostró que 20 de 23 especies presentaron una relación positiva entrela densidad de madera y el tamaño diamétrico. Se concluyó que la densidad dela madera varia por especies y tamaño diamétrico del árbol en estos ecosistemasforestales. Los resultados son útiles para modelar la dinámica de acumulaciónde biomasa arbórea de la vegetación primaria y secundaria que se encuentra enconstantes cambios en su estructura y composición de especies.Palabras clave:Ecosistemas forestales, propiedades de madera, biomasa arbórea,captura de carbono, sureste mexicano

- Abstract
Resumen Se analizó la estructura, composición y diversidad arbórea de los dos rodales más importantes de selva mediana perennifolia de Bravaisia integerrima (SMPC) de Tabasco, México: el de la Reserva Ecológica Yu-Balcah (YCAH) con una superficie de 271 ha y el del Parque Estatal La Chontalpa (PECH) con 191 ha. En cada uno se levantaron 10 parcelas de muestreo de 1000 m2, cubriendo un área total de 2 ha. Se identificó y registró a las plantas arbóreas, diferenciando brinzales, plantas juveniles y adultos. Se aplicaron diversos índices para analizar el esfuerzo de muestreo, la diversidad de especies, la abundancia proporcional, la dominancia y la equidad. El análisis estructural se basó en el valor de importancia. La riqueza total fue 76 especies, pertenecientes a 64 géneros y 31 familias botánicas, de las que la mejor representada fue Leguminosae con 15 especies. El área basal de YCAH y PECH fue de 37.2 y 29.5 m2ha-1, respectivamente. Bravaisia integerrima fue el árbol con mayor valor de importancia en los dos rodales con un Índice correspondiente de 277. Ambos fragmentos tienen un valor del índice de Shannon de 2.0. El sitio con mejor condición ecológica fue YCAH. Se identificaron seis especies catalogadas en la NOM-059-SEMARNAT-2010. La SMPC presenta una cobertura actual en Tabasco de 490 ha. Los resultados sugieren que su estructura y composición se han visto afectados por la actividad antrópica en la región. Para garantizar la conservación de los remanentes de SMPC en el estado, es importante revisar y actualizar su situación legal y sus planes de manejo, así como generar alternativas sociales y productivas en las poblaciones cercanas. Para lograrlo se requiere de la participación de actores gubernamentales, académicos, organizaciones no gubernamentales, particulares y sociedad en conjunto.

- Abstract
The high species richness of tropical forests has long been recognized, yet there remains substantial uncertainty regarding the actual number of tropical tree species. Using a pantropical tree inventory database from closed canopy forests, consisting of 657,630 trees belonging to 11,371 species, we use a fitted value of Fisher’s alpha and an approximate pantropical stem total to estimate the minimum number of tropical forest tree species to fall between ∼40,000 and ∼53,000, i.e., at the high end of previous estimates. Contrary to common assumption, the Indo-Pacific region was found to be as species-rich as the Neotropics, with both regions having a minimum of ∼19,000–25,000 tree species. Continental Africa is relatively depauperate with a minimum of ∼4,500–6,000 tree species. Very few species are shared among the African, American, and the Indo-Pacific regions. We provide a methodological framework for estimating species richness in trees that may help refine species richness estimates of tree-dependent taxa., The high species richness of tropical forests has long been recognized, yet there remains substantial uncertainty regarding the actual number of tropical tree species.

- Abstract
We combined two existing datasets of vegetation aboveground biomass (AGB) (Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 108, 2011, 9899; Nature Climate Change, 2, 2012, 182) into a pan-tropical AGB map at 1-km resolution using an independent reference dataset of field observations and locally calibrated high-resolution biomass maps, harmonized and upscaled to 14 477 1-km AGB estimates. Our data fusion approach uses bias removal and weighted linear averaging that incorporates and spatializes the biomass patterns indicated by the reference data. The method was applied independently in areas (strata) with homogeneous error patterns of the input (Saatchi and Baccini) maps, which were estimated from the reference data and additional covariates. Based on the fused map, we estimated AGB stock for the tropics (23.4 N–23.4 S) of 375 Pg dry mass, 9–18% lower than the Saatchi and Baccini estimates. The fused map also showed differing spatial patterns of AGB over large areas, with higher AGB density in the dense forest areas in the Congo basin, Eastern Amazon and South-East Asia, and lower values in Central America and in most dry vegetation areas of Africa than either of the input maps. The validation exercise, based on 2118 estimates from the reference dataset not used in the fusion process, showed that the fused map had a RMSE 15–21% lower than that of the input maps and, most importantly, nearly unbiased estimates (mean bias 5 Mg dry mass ha−1 vs. 21 and 28 Mg ha−1 for the input maps). The fusion method can be applied at any scale including the policy-relevant national level, where it can provide improved biomass estimates by integrating existing regional biomass maps as input maps and additional, country-specific reference datasets.

RAIN forests , *FORESTS & forestry , *VEGETATION management - Abstract
Between August 2003 and August 2005 we registered the flowering and fruiting of 75 tree species (341 individual trees) in a tropical rain forest at Tenosique, Tabasco, Mexico. Monthly we checked five transects (500 m long; 5 m wide). To test the homogeneity of flowering and fruiting during the year, and between adjacent months, we applied a χ² test. The flowering was bimodal, with a highest peak in March and April, coinciding with the dry season, and a second lower peak in July when precipitation is relatively low. The highest number of fruiting tree species occur between May and July, with its peak in May. Each of the most common botanical families showed a particular phenological pattern. Monthly rainfall and the number of species flowering or fruiting were not significantly correlated. This means that trees are flowering and fruiting all year long, with seasonal increases of both phenological phenomena in the dryer periods. We conclude that phenological patterns vary between individuals and between years and are not seasonally correlated. The data we generated are relevant to program the best periods of seed collections according to individual or groups of species, as part of forest management and conservation practices.

BIOMASS gasification , *SAWMILLS , *ELECTRICITY , *FEASIBILITY studies , *CARBON credits - Abstract
The feasibility of converting sawmill residues in electricity through gasification was evaluated in two ejido sawmills, Rocheachi and Tatahuichi, in the Guachochi municipality of Chihuahua State. The area has a semi cold climate, with temperature and precipitation annual means of 10,6 °C and 800 mm, respectively; the tree cover is dominated by pine and pine-oak communities with Pinus arizonica and P. duranguensis being the main species used for logging. The residues flow was estimated and its chemical composition and heating value characterized. The selected technology was the fixed bed downdraft gasifier; the costs and specifications data were provided by a Chinese supplier. The main assumptions were: 1,3 kgDM/kwh, 80% plant factor, electricity output sold for street lighting at 80% of commercial price. The financial viability was evaluated through the configuration of (100, 200, 400 and 800) kw systems and three scenarios: base, optimistic and pessimistic. The effect of additional revenues from carbon credits sold at the voluntary market at 4, 5 and 6 US$/tCO2 was assessed. The internal rate of return (IRR) increased consistently with increasing the systems' capacity with the 800kw being the most economically attractive. without carbon credits, the 100 kw system showed no positive values at any scenario whereas the 800 kw system was the only one with positive IRR in all the scenarios with a range of 3% to 13%; the additional revenues from carbon credits added 2,3 and 2,9% to the low and high scenarios, respectively. In the context of the study, the systems evaluated would satisfy the additionality criteria required by the carbon market. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

GERMINATION , *PLANT reproduction , *TREE seedlings , *BLACK cotton soil , *WETLAND biodiversity - Abstract
Wetland tree species are of importance for economic and restoration purposes. We describe the germination process and seedling morphology of six arboreal native species typical of Southeastern Mexico: Annona glabra, Ceiba pentandra, Pachira aquatica, Haematoxylum campechianum, Coccoloba barbadensis and Crataeva tapia. A total of 300 seeds per species were planted in a mixture of sand, cocoa plant husk and black soil (1: 1: 1), and maintained in a tree nursery with 30% artificial shade, from February to November of 2007. We carried out the morphological characterization, and elaborated a key to seedlings based on: 1) germination type 2) seedling axis and 3) leaf elements. P. aquatica has cryptocotylar hypogeal germination, the others have phanerocotylar epigeal germination. Germination rates were high (>86%), except for C. barbadensis (69%). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
