Le Gradient Altitudinal Sur Les Sommets Tabulaires de Guyane [French]

By Cesar Delnatte and Delnatte-C

Bien que l'Amazonie soit essentiellement couverte par une foret de basse altitude, elle possede quelques reliefs. Les travaux precedents ont montre que la Guyane en presentait deux types: les inselbergs et les sommets tabulaires sur roches basiques. Sur ces derniers, la vegetation y est relativement uniforme entre les reliefs d'altitude et de nature geomorphologique comparables. Notre travail vise principalement a etudier la composition floristique le long d'un gradient altitudinal en s'appuyant sur plusieurs bioindicateurs. Amazonia is mainly covered by lowland forest, however it presents some reliefs. Previous works have shown two types of relief in French Guiana: Inselbergs and plateaus on basic volcanic rocks known as table mountains. Regarding the latter two, vegetation is quite uniform within mountains with comparable altitude and geomorphology. The present research deals mainly with studying floristic composition along an altitudinal gradient with several bioindicators."
