We can mitigate the impacts of change if we understand how tropical ecosystems respond to disturbance. For tropical forests and streams in Puerto Rico this book describes the impacts of, and recovery from, hurricanes, landslides, floods, droughts, and human disturbances in the Luquillo Mountains of Puerto Rico. These ecosystems recover quickly after natural disturbances, having been shaped over time by such events. But human disturbance has longer-lasting impacts. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Forest ecology|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85050575|zPuerto Rico|zLuquillo Mountains.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh93000798-781 650 0 Forest ecology|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85050575|zCaribbean Area.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85020279-781 650 0 Forest ecology|zTropics.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2008121048 650 0 Ecological disturbances|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh00003433|zPuerto Rico|zLuquillo Mountains. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh93000798-781 650 0 Adaptation (Biology)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85000800|zPuerto Rico|zLuquillo Mountains. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh93000798-781 650 0 Biotic communities|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85014266|zPuerto Rico|zLuquillo Mountains. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh93000798-781 650 0 Forest management|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects /sh85050603|zPuerto Rico|zLuquillo Mountains.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh93000798-781 650 0 Forest conservation|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85050567|zPuerto Rico|zLuquillo Mountains. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh93000798-781 650 7 Forest ecology.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/932104 650 7 Ecological disturbances.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/901445 650 7 Adaptation (Biology)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 796474 650 7 Biotic communities.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 832828 650 7 Forest management.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 932231 650 7 Forest conservation.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 932069 651 0 Luquillo Mountains (P.R.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh93000798|xEnvironmental conditions.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005384 651 7 Puerto Rico|zLuquillo Mountains.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1264507 651 7 Caribbean Area.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1244080 651 7 Tropics.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1240674 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Brokaw, Nicholas V.
