Descripción
Environmental variability modifies forest structure through interactions amongsoil properties, topography, and climate. These factors influence the occurrence of contrastingforest types in northern Amazonia (Brazil), such as forests in highlands (TerraFirme) and forests under regular flooding (Várzea). Flooding regimes influence soil formationand modify soil geochemistry, nutrient distribution, and organic matter accumulation,shaping forest structure and composition. The objective was to determinethe relationships between structure and soil characteristics in non-flooded and floodedtropical forests. We compared forest structure and soil characteristics at both conditions(n = 2 treatments × 20 replicas = 40 plots) using univariate and multivariate analyses. Wefound significant differences in most of the studied variables between forest types, bothchemical and physical properties. Our results showed that flooding defines forest structureand composition (e.g., tree density, height, and volume) and influences soil nutrient characteristics.Floodplain forests exhibited higher soil nutrient concentration and organic carboncontent, likely due to periodic litter accumulation, sediments, and reduced decompositionrates. In contrast, non-flooded forests were characterized by lower nutrient levels, highersand content, and greater forest structure values (e.g., height, basal area, and volume).These insights contribute to understanding the functioning of both forest ecosystems.
