Place attachment and attitudes to landscape change for tree planting and net zero

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract To reach net zero by 2050 the Paris Agreement on Climate Change recommended tree cover expansion and tree planting to support Nationally Determined Contributions. We use place attachment in the context of historical events to explore landscape change and attitudes towards tree planting.

Terrestrial Establishment of Strangler Figs in Burned Tropical Peat Swamp Forests, Sumatra, Indonesia. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Strangler figs (Ficus spp.) typically establish as epiphytes on host trees. Here we document abundant terrestrial establishment of strangler figs in burned tropical peat‐swamp forests of Sumatra, Indonesia. Given their abundance, flexible establishment mode, and role as keystone species supporting frugivore communities, naturally regenerating strangler

Charge towards green finance ignores risks of nature commodification: Evidence from the UK's climate and nature recovery policy landscape

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract The urgent need for up‐scaled finance has become central to the climate and nature recovery discourses worldwide. With most existing investments coming from public sources, closing the financing gap has become the overpowering argument for calling for private investments into nature restoration and conservation.

Herbarium digitisation sheds light on historical distribution and drivers of population extinction of a peat bog specialist

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Biodiversity loss threatens ecosystem services and human well‐being. Understanding the extent and causes of changes in biodiversity over time can help protect species and their habitats. Herbaria house carefully documented and curated specimens collected by generations of botanists.

Controls on plot-scale growing season CO2 and CH4 fluxes in restored peatlands: Do they differ from unrestored and natural sites? [PDF]

, 2016
This study brings together plot-scale growing season fluxes of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) from six Canadian peatlands restored by the moss layer transfer technique (MLTT) and compares them with fluxes from adjacent unrestored and natural ...

Peatland restoration as an affordable nature-based climate solution with fire reduction and conservation co-benefits in Indonesia

Environmental Research Letters, 2022
Ecosystem restoration is increasingly employed as a nature-based solution to a range of crises. Decisions over restoration must balance limited resources, land constraints, and competing demands.
