Malaria-associated rubber plantations in Thailand
Travel Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2013 Rubber forestry is intentionally used as a land management strategy. The propagation of rubber plantations in tropic and subtropic regions appears to influence the economical, sociological and ecological aspects of sustainable development as well as human well-being and health.

A meta-review of remote sensing for rubber plantations
International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and GeoinformationThe rapid expansion of rubber plantations has led to significant ecological impacts, including deforestation and reduced carbon storage capacity, such as rubber-induced 4.1 million ha of forest loss in Southeast Asia (SEA). Remote sensing, essential for monitoring rubber expansion and supporting initiatives like REDD+ and EU deforestation regulations ...
