Abstract
•We simulated, using LandClim, the effects of land use intensity in tropical forest landscapes.•AGB accumulation and diversity were negatively correlated with land use intensity.•Landscape configuration was an important predictor of AGB and tree diversity changes.•Forest regrowth potential was higher in pasture landscapes than in sugarcane landscapes.•Time was an important factor of AGB and diversity predictions.
