Long‐term interventions by conservation and development projects support successful recovery of tropical peatlands in Amazonia

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 4, Page 871-886, April 2025.
Abstract Rural communities in Amazonia rely on harvesting Mauritia flexuosa fruit, a dominant peatland palm, for their subsistence and income. However, these palms are felled to harvest the fruits, which has led to reduced resource availability due to the pressure exerted by the increasing fruit demand.

The need for carbon finance schemes to tackle overexploitation of tropical forest wildlife

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 1, February 2025.
Abstract Defaunation of tropical forests, particularly from unsustainable hunting, has diminished populations of key seed dispersers for many tree species, driving shifts in forest community composition toward small‐fruited or wind‐dispersed trees with low wood density. Such shifts can reduce aboveground biomass, prompting calls for overexploitation to
