A technique for measuring the density and complexity of understorey vegetation in tropical forests

The dense understorey regrowth after disturbance of tropical forests has been linked to serious declines in many understorey and terrestrial animal taxa. We devised a method of measuring changes in vegetation characteristics using standardized photographs of the forest understorey. We describe the m...
