Seeking methods for restoration of tropical dry forest in the Lesser Antilles, including site preparation, species composition, plant spacing, and watering requirements. Thank you.
Hi Natalia,
Here are some useful pdf attachments relating to reforestation of tropical dry forest..
Best of Luck
Thank you for these excellent resources, pdf form is very helpful as well.
Direct seeding of 20-30 seeds/m2 of drought-resistant non-invasive shrubs + native trees of all ecological groups (mix all and plant in small holes), along with fire protection and, perhaps, grazing exclusion.
Hii Natalia. I think the pdf provided to you will help you a lot. You can also see some of the papers of litter decomposition which will help you in understanding the litter dynamics and its role in restoration . Kindly find the paper entitled "Understanding the effectiveness of litter from tropical dry forests for the restoration of degraded lands'. Hope this will help you in someway.
Great suggestion, Apurva, thank you, I had not considered this aspect.
Good project....We're in the same target...Good luck Natalia Collier
