Aspectos da variação ambiental em uma floresta de galeria em Itutinga, MG, Brasil.

Abstract: Foi caracterizada a heterogeneidade ambiental em uma área de floresta de galeria (7,55 ha), em Itutinga, MG, Brasil, pelas variações das propriedades químicas e físicas do solo, da topografia e da abertura de dossel. As propriedades do solo e a topografia foram estudadas em 28 parcelas de 10 x 30 m utilizadas em um levantamento da comunidade arbóreo-arbustiva da área. Para a abertura do dossel utilizaram-se duas transecções de 50 m de largura, compostas por parcelas contíguas de 10 x 10 m, cruzando a floresta … Show more

“…This can occur when a given habitat is more limiting than another to any given ecosystem function. Natural edges are usually more stressful habitats than interiors in terms of exposure to natural hazards such as wildfires, desiccation, and limitation of soil nutrients (Van den Berg & Santos, 2003;de Oliveira Coelho et al, 2016;Bragion et al, 2018;Nunes et al, 2018;Silva et al, 2019). Soil fertility and moisture increase toward interiors (near to the stream's edge) due to topographical effects.…”

“…Two non-exclusive hypotheses can explain smaller trees in edges as compared to interiors. First, trees may grow slower in the edges than in interiors as soil moisture and nutrients decrease toward the edge (Van den Berg & Santos, 2003). Second, trees may die early (high mortality rate) in the edges compared to interiors as disturbances, such as fire and drought, increase in frequency and intensity toward the edge (Hoffmann et al, 2009(Hoffmann et al, , 2012.…”
