Impacts of past activities on modern forest structures near ancient settlements are long-lasting and may influence current estimates of tropical forest composition.
“These studies show that the impacts of past activities on modern forest structures near the location of ancient settlements are long-lasting, to the extent that they may influence our current estimates of forest composition in tropical forests, such as the Amazon7,8, the eastern flank of the tropical Andes6, and the neotropical forests of Central America9–11.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
