             abstract = "Previous studies at Manaus (Lucas et al. 2002) indicated that 
                         different pathways of tropical forest regeneration existed as a 
                         function of differences in prior land use and that these pathways 
                         could be differentiated using remotely sensed data. In this study, 
                         further analysis of inventory data collected at Manaus, Amazonas 
                         (1995) and Santar{\'e}m, Par{\'a} (2002) confirmed the existence 
                         of several pathways of regeneration, with those dominated by the 
                         pioneer genera Cecropia and Vismia being common to both. 
                         Differences in regeneration pathway could be attributed to 
                         differences in prior land use. The study emphasizes the benefits 
                         of considering pathway when mapping regenerating forests using 
                         remotely sensed data and for understanding/modeling succession and 
                         carbon dynamics. The use of remote sensing for understanding the 
                         processes of regeneration is also highlighted.",
