Carbon finance initiatives can provide biodiversity benefits

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We evaluated the biodiversity co‐benefits of a REDD+ initiative in the tropical forests of Sierra Leone and Liberia using a quasi‐experimental study design. Complementary measures from bioacoustics and DNA metabarcoding revealed that REDD+‐financed protected areas were associated with additional biodiversity benefits compared to control areas.

Simulated soundscapes and transfer learning boost the performance of acoustic classifiers under data scarcity

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 2, Page 322-338, February 2026.
Abstract The biodiversity crisis necessitates spatially extensive methods to monitor multiple taxonomic groups for evidence of change in response to evolving environmental conditions. Programs that combine passive acoustic monitoring and machine learning are increasingly used to meet this need. These methods require large, annotated datasets, which are
