L. aThe impact of mound-building termites on surface soil properties in a secondary forest of Central Amazonia. c2007 aIn this study, we (1) quantified the area covered by termite mounds in Central Amazonian successional forest site, (2) characterized chemical, physical, and hydraulic properties of the mounds, and (3) determined which of these properties constrain the development of plant species on termite mounds. We hypothesized that the constraint for plants would be mechanical resistance to exploitation by plant roots. aBrazil atermite mounds aFloresta Secundaria aOxisol aSolo aAmazon aAmazĂ´nia Central aSuccession aTermite1 aTEIXEIRA, W.
