    Abstract. Mahogany species from the Caribbean, Central America, and South America and the hybrid of small-leaf and big-leaf mahogany were planted on contrasting soils under different climates in Puerto Rico. Species performance differed markedly according to water availability. Big-leaf mahogany and the hybrid survived and grew at higher rates in the wetter northeastern sites, and small-leaf mahogany was more successful in the drier southwestern sites. We tested the hypothesis that this pattern results from differences in ...

    The mangrove ecosystem is defined in many ways by its eponymous constituents, the mangrove trees. They are not only the most significant primary producers but also determine habitat quality through their physical structure and by interaction with the abiotic environment, e.g. by serving as substrate for a great number of organisms, by influencing soil chemistry with their root system or
