Tree growth over three years in response to monthly rainfall in central Amazonia

Abstract: Abstract:In central Amazonia, annual rainfall distribution is characterized by a short mild dry season which is associated with a slight increase in irradiance and decline in relative humidity, but the effect of variations in these variables on tree growth is still unclear. The objective of this study was to determine how tree growth responds to monthly variations in some climate variables in central Amazonia. Trees of Protium hebetatum Daly (18-20 m tall) and Eschweilera collina Eyma (19-27 m tall) were used … Show more

“…Precipitation, in turn, is an important seasonal factor, associated with temperature, drought indices, where there is a clear correlation between climate variables, however, the accumulated annual rainfall did not show a strong relationship with the current annual increment in basal area, therefore, it is inferred that species may present different responses, according to precipitation levels (Camargo;Marenco, 2017).…”
