Biodiversity and ecosystem services of secondary Andean-Amazonian forests

Andrés Mauricio Munar (ed),

Synopsis

This book compiles research results related to biodiversity management based on the estimation of species richness and abundance, as well as the structure and composition of secondary forests and carbon storage capacity. The publication entitled: "Biodiversity and ecosystem services of Andean-Amazonian secondary forests" is derived from research conducted by students, teachers and graduates of the School of Agricultural, Livestock and Environmental Sciences (ECAPMA) of UNAD and the research group Inyumacizo, categorized in A by MinCiencias, in articulation with the Node of Knowledge of Rural Areas CIER - UNAD.
The book is divided into two chapters. The first chapter is called: "Floristic diversity and associated entomofauna in Andean-Amazonian secondary forests" and the second one is called: "Ecosystem services of Andean-Amazonian secondary forests". This material constitutes a highly relevant resource, accessible to the scientific and academic community, professionals, experts, technicians and the general public interested in biodiversity and ecosystem services of secondary forests in the Andean-Amazon region. In addition, the book provides a solid basis for decision making, planning and construction of conservation policies on the biodiversity and ecosystem services provided by Andean-Amazonian secondary forests, which are of great importance for the conservation of biodiversity and ecosystem services in the Andean-Amazonian region.
