Environmental influences on chorusing patterns in an Australian tropical savanna frog community by Sheryn Brodie, Slade Allen‐Ankins, Lin Schwarzkopf

“…We used long‐duration false‐color spectrograms derived from acoustic indices to detect the nightly chorusing of a community of anurans in a tropical savanna in north Queensland. We described the chorusing patterns of each species over two wet seasons at three breeding sites, and used conditional random forest analysis to investigate the influence of various environmental factors. …”

Role of Litter Turnover in Soil Quality in Tropical Degraded Lands of Colombia by Juan D. León, Nelson W. Osorio

“…The objective in this review is to discuss the role of litter production and decomposition as a key strategy to reactivate biogeochemical nutrient cycles and thus improve soil quality in degraded land of the tropics. For this purpose the results of different projects of land restoration in Colombia are presented based on the dynamics of litter production, nutrient content, and decomposition. …”

Effectiveness of Extractants for Bioavailable Phosphorus in Tropical Soils Amended with Sewage Sludge by Roberta Corrêa Nogueirol, Wanderley José de Melo, Edna Ivani Bertoncini, Luís Reynaldo Ferracciú Alleoni

“…Urban wastes such as sewage sludge can be an economically viable alternative source for providing macro- and micronutrients to plants in tropical conditions. Sewage sludge is normally rich in phosphorus (P), which is present in soils mainly in organic forms, so that it is very important to establish methods for estimating its availability to plants. …”
