Spatial Heterogeneity in Tree Diversity, Floristic Differentiation, and Forest Structure Across Four Andean–Amazonian Foothill Stands in Southwestern Peru
Tropical foothill forests are heterogeneous transition zones, yet field inventories remain sparse in the Andean–Amazonian region. We compared four forest stands to establish a local biodiversity baseline and determine whether tree diversity, floristic differentiation, and stand structure showed similar descriptive patt...
