Influence of the edge effect on a soil seed bank of a natural fragment in the Atlantic Forest
The edge effect is defined as the change of biotic and abiotic characteristics in the first meters of a forest fragment from the edge towards its interior. In fragments formed by human activities, this change generates increased richness and abundance, as well as changes in the structure of the forest species of soil seed bank in the border region. This study demonstrates that in natural fragments of cloud forests, the abundance and richness positively influence the linear relation from the edge to interior, mainly by distances of 120 and 180 meters from the edge. This effect can be a result of new plant growth, or ‘pioneer’ occupation in gaps in the forests generated by large fallen trees.
期刊介绍:
The Iheringia, Série Botânica is a publication edited by the Museu de Ciências Naturais, Fundação Zoobotânica do Rio Grande do Sul, since 1958. The name Iheringia is actually a tribute to Hermann von Ihering (a German researcher who became a Brazilian citizen) and his important studies in the Natural Sciences.The journal has the mission of publishing articles, reviews and original scientific notes that cover diverse areas in Botany, and may be written in Portuguese, Spanish and English.
The journal is widely available in both international and national scientific community. The issues are published and distributed twice a year to 118 national institutions and 152 international institutions. The distribution is either free of charge or by exchange.
