Tropical forest succession increases tree taxonomic and functional richness but decreases evenness
Strong floristic distinctiveness across Neotropical successional forests
Multidimensional tropical forest recovery
Functional recovery of secondary tropical forests
Wet and dry tropical forests show opposite successional pathways in wood density but converge over time
Legume abundance along successional and rainfall gradients in Neotropical forests
Biomass resilience of Neotropical secondary forests
Carbon sequestration potential of second-growth forest regeneration in the Latin American tropics
