Poorter L, Craven D, Jakovac C, van der Sande M, Amissah L, Bongers F, et al.
Science . 2021 Dec; 374(6573):1370-1376. PMID: 34882461
Tropical forests disappear rapidly because of deforestation, yet they have the potential to regrow naturally on abandoned lands. We analyze how 12 forest attributes recover during secondary succession and how...

Poorter L, Rozendaal D, Bongers F, de Almeida-Cortez J, Zambrano A, Alvarez F, et al.
Nat Ecol Evol . 2019 Apr; 3(6):928-934. PMID: 31011177
Tropical forests are converted at an alarming rate for agricultural use and pastureland, but also regrow naturally through secondary succession. For successful forest restoration, it is essential to understand the...

Rozendaal D, Bongers F, Aide T, Alvarez-Davila E, Ascarrunz N, Balvanera P, et al.
Sci Adv . 2019 Mar; 5(3):eaau3114. PMID: 30854424
Old-growth tropical forests harbor an immense diversity of tree species but are rapidly being cleared, while secondary forests that regrow on abandoned agricultural lands increase in extent. We assess how...

Chazdon R, Broadbent E, Rozendaal D, Bongers F, Zambrano A, Aide T, et al.
Sci Adv . 2016 Jul; 2(5):e1501639. PMID: 27386528
Regrowth of tropical secondary forests following complete or nearly complete removal of forest vegetation actively stores carbon in aboveground biomass, partially counterbalancing carbon emissions from deforestation, forest degradation, burning of...

Poorter L, Bongers F, Aide T, Almeyda Zambrano A, Balvanera P, Becknell J, et al.
Nature . 2016 Feb; 530(7589):211-4. PMID: 26840632
Land-use change occurs nowhere more rapidly than in the tropics, where the imbalance between deforestation and forest regrowth has large consequences for the global carbon cycle. However, considerable uncertainty remains...
