Overview
Latin America has an enormous environmental and ecological forest heterogeneity, a high potential for the dendrosciences
There is a lack of dendroecological studies on Neotropical, semi-arid and Andean biomes
The book provides essential information on local dendroecological issues

About the editors
Dr. J. Julio (Chechu) Camarero is a researcher at the Instituto Pirenaico de Ecología (CSIC), Zaragoza, Spain. He leads the dendroecology and forest ecology group at the CSIC, where he has established both national and international collaborative networks. An expert on dendroecology and forest ecology, his main research interests include understanding the growth, mortality and recruitment patterns in woody plant communities, particularly forests. He has published more than 250 SCI papers and several book chapters, chiefly in the areas of: forest dieback, treeline dynamics, tree responses to biotic stressors (defoliating insects, fungal pathogens) and xylogenesis (phenology of radial growth).
