The microclimate of evergreen riparian forest along the Rio Potrero
below a large waterfall is briefly contrasted with microclimate of the
adjacent deciduous forest in the dry season and wet season. Near the '
end of the dry season, a station in the riparian forest had soil
temperatures 6.5°C cooler, air temperatures 5.5°C cooler and a relative
humidity 20 percentage points higher than a station 62 m away in the
deciduous forest. In the rainy season, differences between the two sites
were largely obliterated. |
