Tropical Dry Forest (TDF), a vegetation physiognomy found naturally on Atlantic Forest, Cerrado and Caatinga biomes, has phenology influenced by water stress and nutrient availability, both soil dependent factors. Carrasco is a closed, tall-shrubby, xerophilous vegetation that occurs associated to TDF in some regions. This study aims to verify soil morphological, physical, physical-hydric…
The Cerrado vegetation encompasses a mosaic of physiognomies ranging from "campo limpo" (mainly grassland) to "cerradão" (forest type of vegetation). This transition of types of vegetation is thought to be associated to soils as well as to other factors, such as climate and fire. The understanding of those associations is essential for managing the already small extension of cerrado remna…
