Phosphogypsum is a soil conditioner used to enhance lime effects in depth and also to decrease aluminum (Al) toxicity to plants. It is a by-product from phosphate mining and can be enriched in some contaminants, such as rare earth elements (REE), uranium (U), and thorium (Th). However, there is a lack of studies evaluating the long-term effects of this practice, particularly in soil depths. To address this gap, this study aime...

Recurrent fires can impede the spontaneous recruitment capacity of pine forests. Empirical studies have suggested that this can lead to a prolonged replacement of pine forest by shrubland, especially if shrub species are pyrophytic. Model-based studies, however, have suggested that post-fire succession of pine forest under current climatic conditions will eventually tend towards the dominance of oaks under high fire severity a...

Aim Large tropical trees form the interface between ground and airborne observations, offering a unique opportunity to capture forest properties remotely and to investigate their variations on broad scales. However, despite rapid development of metrics to characterize the forest canopy from remotely sensed data, a gap remains between aerial and field inventories. To close this gap, we propose a new pan‐tropical model to predic...
