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

open access: yesPeople 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.

Integrating Functional and Phylogenetic Diversity to Assess Bird Community Assembly Along the Major Rivers of Hainan Island, South China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2025.
Bird communities within rivers were characterized by an overall slight clustering. Altitude and the human influence index were identified as the main factors driving bird community assembly within the three major rivers of Hainan Island. This study demonstrates the importance of integrating functional and phylogenetic diversity.
