Biotropica - 2016 - Hawes - Patterns of Plant Phenology in Amazonian Seasonally Flooded and Unflooded Forests by Renata Souza is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study investigates plant phenology patterns in seasonally flooded várzea and unflooded terra firme forests in the Amazon, focusing on vegetative and reproductive cycles. The research reveals that while phenological patterns are generally similar between the two forest types, key differences exist in leaffall timing and seed dispersal modes, influenced by the annual flood pulse. The findings underscore the need for multiannual data to better understand the ecological processes at play in these distinct
