Bringing social cohesion into forest landscape restoration: Identifying future pathways toward more integrated social‐ecological restoration

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Forest Landscape Restoration (FLR) is increasingly recognized as a key strategy to address land degradation, biodiversity loss and climate change. However, its long‐term success depends not only on ecological outcomes but also on social processes that shape restoration implementation and sustainability.

Reforestation in a high‐CO2 world—Higher mitigation potential than expected, lower adaptation potential than hoped for

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
We assess the potential and possible consequences for the global climate of a strong reforestation scenario for this century. We perform model experiments using the Max Planck Institute Earth System Model (MPI‐ESM), forced by fossil‐fuel CO2 emissions ...

When alien plants become health hazards: An applied study on toxic and allergenic risks in Italy

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Alien plants are often studied for their ecological harm, but their risks to human and animal health remain poorly documented. This study provides the first comprehensive catalogue of poisonous and allergenic alien plants in Italy, identifying which species are dangerous, where they grow and who is most at risk—from children in city parks to pets and ...

Climate‐smart land management: Greenhouse gas outcomes and social and economic pathways to adoption

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change poses one of the greatest threats to natural and working lands, reducing the resilience of agricultural and forest productivity. Because land management is a leading source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, climate‐smart management practices are being implemented to reduce net emissions while sustaining yields.

UAV‐Based Precision Seed Dropping for Automated Reforestation

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wildfires and deforestation pose significant threats to forest ecosystems, motivating scalable methods for reforestation beyond labor‐intensive cultivation of native forest seedlings in nurseries. To enable large‐scale direct seeding of native species, this paper presents the design, analysis, and field evaluation of a UAV‐based seed‐dropping ...

Vulnerability to Dams of the Last Undammed Large Rivers of Southeast Asia

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The vast majority of large Eurasian rivers are regulated by hydropower dams, but some have survived as free‐flowing rivers so far in the Arctic and along stretches of the Myanmar coast. There, the Ayeyarwady (Irrawaddy) and Salween Rivers, two of the largest rivers of Southeast Asia, provide a huge amount of sediment, nurturing floodplains and
