Abstract: Land-cover transitions from forest to non-forest land-covers have led to substantial loss and fragmentation of global forests. While average rates of forest change are well studied, less attention has been paid to spatio-temporal trajectories of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2202310119
Abstract: Significance Tropical forests are threatened by human activities, which result in deforestation and degradation. However, multiple land-use and land-cover transitions are occurring in tropical landscapes, and we do not know how these transitions differ in… read more here.
