Deforestation and Forest Fragmentation in South Ecuador since the 1970s-Losing a Hotspot of Biodiversity

Deforestation and Forest Fragmentation in South Ecuador since the 1970s-Losing a Hotspot of Biodiversity

Deforestation and fragmentation are major components of global change; both are contributing to the rapid loss of tropical forest area with important implications for ecosystem functioning and biodiversity conservation. The forests of South Ecuador are a biological 'hotspot' due to their h...
