Abstract:

Suture zones, shared regions of secondary contact between long-isolated lineages, are natural laboratories for studying divergence and speciation. For tropical rainforest, the existence of suture zones and their significance for speciation has been controversial. Using comparative phylogeographic evidence, we locate a morphologically cryptic suture zone in the Australian Wet Tropics rainforest. Fourteen out of 18 contacts involve morphologically cryptic phylogeographic lineages, with mtDNA sequence divergences ranging from 2 to 15 per cent. Contact zones are significantly clustered in a suture

Abstract:

Abstract. Tropical rainforests rely on their root systems to access moisture stored in soil during wet periods for use during dry periods. When this root zone soil moisture is inadequate to sustain a forest ecosystem, they transition to a savanna-like state, losing their native structure and functions. Yet the influence of climate change on ecosystem's root zone soil moisture storage and the impact on rainforest ecosystems remain uncertain. This study assesses the future state of rainforests and the risk of forest-to-savanna transitions in South America and Africa under four Shared Socioeconom

Abstract:

This paper explores past connections of Aboriginal people within what is now known as the Wet Tropics, a coastal strip of tropical rainforest in northeast Australia. As a result of historical and ethnographic descriptions the rainforest is often defined as a ‘cultural zone’. The proclamation of the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area, based on environmental parameters, has exaggerated the idea of the rainforest as a cultural boundary. We propose that in the past, Aboriginal connections were multifaceted, multifunctional and multidirectional, extending beyond the Wet Tropics boundaries. We use rock

Abstract:

Icacinicaryites corruga is reported from the upper coal zone of the Raton Formation in south-central Colorado. Prior to this report, this endocarp imprint was known from only a single locality near Pagosa Springs in southwestern Colorado (Animas Formation). This demonstrates that Icacinaceae, which characterized the late Paleocene – early Eocene tropical rainforests of western North America, already were present in Colorado’s early middle Paleocene tropical rainforest. This determination agrees with the results of a reevaluation of the stratigraphic distribution of previous records of Icacinac

Recent archaeological investigations in Sri Lanka have reported evidence for the exploitation and settlement of tropical rainforests by Homo sapiens since c. 48,000 BP. Information on technological approaches used by human populations in rainforest habitats is restricted to two cave sites, Batadomba-lena and Fa-Hien Lena. Here, we provide detailed study of the lithic assemblages of Kitulgala Beli-lena, a recently excavated rockshelter preserving a sedimentary sequence from the Late Pleistocene to the Holocene.

SUMMARYA two year field study designed to investigate the effect of spacing on yield of two cowpea cultivars in the savanna and forest zones of Nigeria showed that cowpea yields were larger in the savanna than in the forest zone at all spacings employed. Inter-row spacing wider than 60 cm and intra-row spacing closer than 10 cm could be used for improved seed yield in the savanna zone, while 60 × 20 cm (83 333 plants ha−1) would be optimum for cowpea production in the forest zone.

AbstractIn Peru’s rainforest (Selva), the research interest was in two cases of flood-driven, short-distance, planned relocation in the Region of San Martín. After having requested relocation, both villages first became forcibly immobile for years (V3 and V4) and only one relocation was eventually accomplished (V3). These cases are of interest for two reasons. First, the evidence demonstrates that the annual flood cycle in the rainforest and extreme floods periodically drive individual migration and when habitability is threatened, the state has occasionally attempted to relocate entire commun

Abstract:

Abstract Water control in mature heavy-oil reservoirs is a well-known challenge in the Oil & Gas industry. Due to the mobility ratio, water tends to flow much easier compared to oil, leading to premature water breakthrough which pushes water cut values to over 95% or more within weeks of oil production. High volumes of water production negatively impact operations due to excessive electricity consumption (lifting and re-injection), overuse of water handling/treatment facilities and its associated impact to the environment. In some fields, high water-cut can limit the oil production if the
