Evident but context‐dependent mortality of fish passing hydroelectric turbines
Conservation Biology, Volume 36, Issue 3, June 2022., 2022 Abstract Globally, policies aiming for conservation of species, free‐flowing rivers, and promotion of hydroelectricity as renewable energy and as a means to decarbonize energy systems generate trade‐offs between protecting freshwater fauna and development of hydropower. Hydroelectric turbines put fish at risk of severe injury during passage. Therefore,

Litter‐trapping tank bromeliads in five different forests: Carbon and nutrient pools and fluxes
Biotropica, Volume 54, Issue 1, Page 170-180, January 2022., 2022 Bromeliads are the most abundant litter‐trapping plants in Neotropical forest canopies. We analyzed the carbon and nutrient pools and fluxes in tank bromeliads in different forests along an elevation gradient. Only a small percentage of the annual litterfall (<3%) is trapped by tank bromeliads.

Taxing Flaring and the Politics of State Methane Release Policy
Review of Policy Research, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 6-38, January 2020., 2020 Abstract Methane is a potent greenhouse gas but it has received strikingly less social science attention than carbon dioxide in examining climate policy options. This article explores American state policy toward methane that is not captured and instead released into the atmosphere during oil and gas production.

Enabling conditions for conservation on Indigenous and community lands
Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Despite increasing evidence and general acceptance in global environmental policy of the significant role of Indigenous Peoples and local communities (IP&LC) in biodiversity conservation and climate change mitigation, an implementation gap remains between global policy and how conservation plays out on the ground.

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 11, Issue 4, Page 394-410, August 2025.We analyzed the effects of fire on secondary forests' vertical structure in different successional stages using lidar metrics. Our results show that independently of the successional stage, secondary forests that experienced fire were more degraded than unburned secondary forest areas. Overall, our results show that forests in early successional stage (

Enriching Carbon: Surplus Value Creation and Capture on the Voluntary Carbon Markets
Antipode, Volume 56, Issue 5, Page 1734-1753, September 2024.Abstract This article examines the creation and capture of surplus value in the voluntary carbon markets to show the importance of narratives and networks in justifying price. Rather than a push towards commensurability in carbon markets, it points to the emergence of profitable business models based on the enrichment of credits. Enrichment focuses not

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 5, Issue 3, July–September 2024.Looking at different reforestation methods over 14 years in an Emberá Indigenous community in Panama we found that plots with native timber mixtures and monocultures stored three times more carbon than those with agroforestry or natural regrowth. Natural regrowth was less valued by participants due to the abundance of pioneer species, but it helped ...

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 7-12, January 2024.By increasing the representation of exceptional species in reforestation efforts, we could potentially boost long‐term carbon storage in reforestation projects focussed on carbon sequestration. However, our approach is not a substitute for protecting existing old primary forests and reforested lands plus reducing deforestation and emissions.
