This book provides a comprehensive overview of the most endangered ecosystem in the tropics: the tropical seasonal dry forests. Written by the best experts in studying these forests and leaders of the initiative on reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation, this reference will be the major synthesis of knowledge on the state of tropical dry forests of the Americas. It addresses new approaches for data sampling and analysis using remote sensing technology, and discusses new ecological and econometric methods to evaluate the effectiveness of the economic model used and to recognize ecosystem services at the continental level and at the national level.
