| Abstract;A biomonitoring system for the observation of disturbance in neotropical rainforest was developed using bryophytes as indicators. It can be applied in wide parts of the Neotropics between sea level and 2000m altitude. For its practical application the computer program 'Bryomonitor' was developed. The biomonitoring system is based on field studies in different rainforest areas of Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru. In each area the changes of the bryophyte vegetation with increasing forest disturbance was studied. (author abst.) |
