DOI: 10.1016/j.foreco.2020.118765
Abstract: Abstract The necessity to restore rainforest habitats degraded by anthropogenic fires is widely recognized, however, research on restoration approaches has mainly centred on the recovery of forest structural complexity. There is insufficient evidence on the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.mambio.2019.03.015
Abstract: Abstract Agroforestry systems are widely extolled as a biodiversity-friendly alternative to food and wood production. However, few studies on large-vertebrates in the tropics consistently support this assumption. In the Amazonian ‘arch of deforestation’, commodity cropland… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/bg-15-4193-2018
Abstract: Abstract. Coexisting plant species in a karst ecosystem may use diverse strategies of trade off between carbon gain and water loss to adopt to the low soil nutrient and low water availability conditions. An understanding… read more here.
