Evaluating land–sea linkages using land cover change and coral reef monitoring data: A case study from northeastern Puerto Rico

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Land cover change that leads to increased nutrient and sediment runoff is an important driver of change in coral reef ecosystems. In this study, we combined satellite remote sensing and field monitoring to assess concomitant changes in watershed land cover and coral cover in northeastern Puerto Rico in 2000–2015.

From Theatre to Transformation: Learning, Action, and Diffusion for SDG2 in Cambodia

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The arts are envisioned as able to help address the longstanding ‘implementation gap’ between research and realisation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). For SDG2 (Zero Hunger), Forum Theatre offers a participatory alternative to top‐down interventions, yet its impacts have not been evaluated using rigorous, mixed‐methods that are ...

Tropical Forests and Sustainability: The Role of Multilateral Financing in Latin America

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The challenge of slowing deforestation and degradation in the tropical regions of Latin America requires financing mechanisms (public and private) that can enable actions to preserve and sustainably manage forest integrity. This paper begins by examining the strategy implemented by the World Bank to protect forest cover in tropical countries ...
