Forests and climate change in Latin America: Linking adaptation and mitigation in projects and policies [PDF]

, 2010
Integrating adaptation and mitigation in forestry projects and policies would maximise local cobenefits and contribute to increased capacity to cope with the risks associated with climate change. Latin America has had some preliminary experience with the

Carbon Farming Optimisation With Market Premiums for Biodiversity Co‐Benefits Under Climate Change Socio‐Economic Pathway Scenarios

Australian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Achieving global climate change mitigation, biodiversity conservation and restoration goals requires innovative solutions that balance carbon sequestration with biodiversity conservation. Payments for ecosystem services markets often treat carbon sequestration and biodiversity separately, but integrating biodiversity as a co‐benefit within ...

Spatial Dynamics and Lifespan of Adult Cicadas After Fire and Logging: A Radiotracking Study

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study investigates the effects of wildfire and post‐fire salvage logging on the survival, spatial behavior, and habitat selection of Lyristes plebejus cicadas in Mediterranean pine forests. A total of 63 cicadas were captured, tagged with radio transmitters, and released in three disturbance contexts: burnt‐logged, burnt‐unlogged, and unburnt ...

Climatic–Anthropogenic Synergy Drives Escalating Minimum Area Requirements and Connectivity‐Protection Mismatch in a Karst‐Endemic Primate

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Climate change and anthropogenic activities drive antagonistic degradation of landscape connectivity for endangered François’ langur (1987–2024), causing 48.8% habitat loss, north‐south fragmentation, and centroid migration (1.2 km/yr). Despite protected areas buffering connectivity, static management fails dynamic priority habitats; we propose ...

Green Equals Green? The Divergent Policy Logics of Climate and Biodiversity Governance

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Market‐based instruments (MBIs) are increasingly promoted in international biodiversity and climate governance. This article argues that biodiversity policy has distinct dynamics and complexities that require approaches beyond economic instruments. By analyzing key concepts such as ecosystem services, biodiversity offsets, and MBIs, this study

Phenological description for the initial development stage of five Brazilian native forest species according to BBCH scale

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Morphology of the two main growth stages—germination and initial development of the forest species Ceiba speciosa (co, cotyledon; eo, eophyll; hp, hypocotyl; me, metaphyll; pk, prickles; pr, primary root; se, seed; sr, secondary root). Abstract A specific phenological scale designated for each forest species facilitates the standardization of different

Harvesting benefits: Exploring the effects of second‐best policies on enhancing soil organic carbon stocks in agriculture

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Agricultural subsidies can be an effective policy tool to enhance soil organic carbon sequestration. This paper assesses the effectiveness of a second‐best hypothetical policy which subsidizes additional canola hectares optimally for each soil zone in Saskatchewan in an effort to increase soil organic carbon.
