             abstract = "In the Amazon Basin there is a wide variation in the average wood 
                         density (AWD). This parameter is fundamental in biomass and carbon 
                         cycle estimates. The AWD gradient occurs from the east and central 
                         direction with the highest densities and westward the lowest 
                         densities. This variation can be determined by composition factors 
                         or environmental conditions. A variable known to correlate with 
                         AWD is the soils. In this study we aim to explore the relationship 
                         between density of the wood and to processes of soil evolution 
                         along the Amazon basin. For achieving this, we analysed data from 
                         AWD process of soil development. We performed quali-quantitative 
                         analysis . Our results suggests a spatial pattern of soils and AWD 
                         , which are presented next. Amazonian soils present a gradient 
                         distribution of younger soils to the west and mature soils to the 
                         east. We found that Ferrasols and Acrisols soils have the highest 
                         AWD , while the Cambisols and Leptosols soils showed smaller lower 
                         AWDs. The AWD in soils with origin of igneous rocks presented a 
                         higher density, correlated with higher degree of pedogenesis in 
                         this region. The oldest geological formations had the higher AWD. 
                         We also found that slightly inclined and flat topography were the 
                         ones that presented the highest AWD. We concluded that there may 
                         be a species adaptation to survive in the regions of more 
                         infertile soils and it may be that the forest dynamics (mortality 
                         and growthth) of the region is not the main strategy of the local 
                         species.",
