Prioritizing global tall forests toward the 30 × 30 goals
Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 6, December 2023., 2023 Abstract The Global Deal for Nature sets an ambitious goal to protect 30% of Earth's land and ocean by 2030. The 30 × 30 initiative is a way to allocate conservation resources and extend protection to conserve vulnerable and underprotected ecosystems while reducing carbon emissions to combat climate change.

Defining biodiverse reforestation: Why it matters for climate change mitigation and biodiversity
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 27-38, January 2023., 2023 Mixed species plantings present an attractive alternative to monoculture reforestation through their added benefits to biodiversity. Yet there is ambiguity in the use of the term ‘biodiversity’ in carbon and biodiversity markets, which may create perverse outcomes when designing schemes and projects.

Limited biomass recovery from gold mining in Amazonian forests
Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 57, Issue 9, Page 1730-1740, September 2020., 2020 To achieve large‐scale restoration targets, Guyana and other Amazonian countries will be challenged to remediate previously mined lands. The recovery process is highly dependent on nitrogen availability rather than mercury contamination, affecting woody biomass regrowth.

Captura de carbono orgánico en zonas con distinto nivel de intervención en páramos de Sayaro
FIGEMPA, 2023 Los páramos son ecosistemas conocidos por su gran capacidad de retención hídrica y secuestro de carbono en los suelos, esto se atribuye a la variedad de flora y fauna de las zonas de humedales en los mismos.

Can avian functional traits predict cultural ecosystem services?
People and Nature, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 138-151, March 2020., 2020 Abstract The functional trait diversity of species assemblages can predict the provision of ecosystem services such as pollination and carbon sequestration, but it is unclear whether the same trait‐based framework can be applied to identify the factors that underpin cultural ecosystem services and disservices. To explore the relationship between traits

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 2, March 2025.We explored the allocation strategies of N and P in leaves and fine roots (metabolic organs) and, in stems and coarse roots (woody organs) of nine dominant tree species in secondary tropical dry forests using scaling analysis. The scaling relationships of P versus N concentrations in non‐leaf organs were isometric across secondary succession and ...
