DOI: 10.1007/s00267-025-02245-8
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: 10.1038/s41598-025-23133-5
Abstract: Understanding tropical forest change requires integrating satellite observations with insights from forest-dependent communities. In West Africa, where deforestation and degradation unfold within complex social-ecological systems, conventional monitoring often overlooks community insights. We combined Landsat-derived forest… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/1747423x.2021.2018514
Abstract: ABSTRACT Understanding the drivers of forest transitions is relevant to inform effective forest conservation. We investigate pathways of forest transitions in the United States (1920–2010), France (1850–2010), and Austria (1830–2010). By combining evidence from forest… read more here.
