Prevalent Greening Conceals the Forgone Ecological Potential of Forest Loss in Southeast Asia

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 9, 16 May 2026.
Abstract Across Southeast Asia (SEA), rapid land‐use transformations have extensively replaced natural forests with fragmented plantations and agricultural mosaics. However, quantifying the ecological legacy of this transformation is hindered by persistent cloud cover and the confounding signal of vegetation growth driven by concurrent environmental ...

Landslide susceptibility mapping using a machine learning approach and different environmental factors in the Western Ghats region (India)

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
Landslide susceptibility mapping in India's Western Ghats using machine learning revealed high‐risk zones driven by deforestation, slope alteration and road proximity. The Random Forest model showed highest accuracy, supporting targeted mitigation, planning and early warning systems.

Agroforestry and enhanced rock weathering: A dual strategy for sustainable cacao

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 843-860, May 2026.
Cacao production is both economically vital and environmentally intensive, presenting a major sustainability challenge as a crop largely cultivated by smallholder farmers in climate‐vulnerable regions. This review synthesises evidence that integrating agroforestry with enhanced rock weathering (EW) may significantly reduce emissions from cacao ...

first results from an experiment on on-farm planting material production in Cameroon [PDF]

, 2006
Rubber smallholdings have yet to be widely developed in Cameroon and, in the absence of a support programme for that sector, small and medium-sized farms are encountering numerous difficulties.

Diversity affects microclimate temperature and humidity: an overview of the evidence and major unanswered questions

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 3, Page 1453-1459, May 2026.
Summary Climate change is increasing global temperatures, increasing atmospheric drying, and driving more severe and frequent drought. Plants can cool and humidify microclimates through sensible and latent heat exchange. Higher diversity plant communities can modify microclimates more strongly than lower diversity plant communities, creating the ...

Deforestation Impacts on Clouds and Precipitation Over Borneo Vary Across the Diurnal Cycle

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract The impact of tropical deforestation on clouds and precipitation remains uncertain due to complex interactions between land and atmospheric processes on convective and mesoscales. Here, we examine convective‐scale processes controlling the short‐term atmospheric response to deforestation over Borneo using multi‐day large eddy simulations ...

Soil Health of Rubber Plantations in Southern Côte D'ivoire: The Case of Cnra Anguédédou Rubber Plantations

International Journal of Plant & Soil Science
The rubber tree, a species of Amazonian forest tree, is cultivated for its natural rubber-rich latex. Its cultivation is of economic, social, climatic and environmental importance. However, it has been criticized as a soil-destroying crop. To clear up this ambiguity, a study was launched to assess the health of soils under rubber cover in southern Côte

Integration of biotechnologies for rubber tree improvement. What about rootstock clones ?

, 2008
Breeding and dissemination of planting material for rubber plantations are closely linked to propagation methods. Since the progress made by shifting from multiplication by seed to propagation by budding, the development of new techniques, such as ...
