This project develops a simulator to model the dynamics of the Amazon rainforest, using extensive field data. It aims to understand the effects of environmental factors on forest growth and biomass, contributing to insights on carbon storage and climate change.
We propose to develop an individual-based simulator for Amazon forest dynamics, which will be highly constraint with existing field data covering the whole basin for the last twenty years.
Findings from the RAINFOR forest plot network include an East-West gradient in turnover times across the basin and an above-ground biomass trend.
The latter finding has important consequences for the global carbon budget and thus greenhouse gas forcing.
Specifically based on the plant functional traits section…
