Most tropical landscapes are mainly composed of dynamic mosaics involving multiple land uses. Different histories of land use management can lead to different successional paths. The aim of this study was to determine if there is a successional floristic gradient related to land use types and how these gradients change across three rural mosaics in...

A variação da riqueza de espécies entre diferentes mosaicos rurais e tipos de uso da terra foi analisada em escala local e da paisagem. Nove tipos de uso entre três mosaicos rurais foram comparados através de curvas de rarefação estabelecidas para três estratos verticais da vegetação. A riqueza foi fortemente influenciada pela composição dos tipos ...
Forest seed bank assessments are scarce in Madagascar and thus little is known about the relationships between the seed banks and vegetation dynamics on which secondary succession processes rely. The objective of this paper is to analyse the effects of slash-and-burn agriculture on soil seed banks and their dynamics along secondary forest successio...
La pratique de l'abattis-brûlis domine la partie Est de Madagascar où les forêts ombrophiles et les recrus âgés sont coupés et bru lés pour une mise en culture temporaire. Après abandon de la culture, la régénération de la forêt se fait spontanément. La dynamique de la composition floristique des recrus forestiers est étudiée dans le corridor fores...
