open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Land conflicts (LCs) represent major challenges in regions where limited resources are contested by diverse actors. The triple frontier of the bioculturally diverse Alto Paraná Atlantic Forests (APAF) ecoregion concentrates some of the most intense LCs in South America.

Human–wildlife conflict and farmland transfer under informal land institutions: Evidence from rural China

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Human–wildlife conflict (HWC) affects not only agricultural production but also how farming households adjust access to and use of land. Existing research has focused largely on welfare losses and land‐use responses, while little is known about whether ecological risk is associated with the governance arrangements through which farmland is ...

Abstract Across sub‐Saharan Africa, tree‐based restoration efforts are dominated by exotic tree species due to their rapid biomass accumulation and short‐term economic returns. However, their limited contribution to biodiversity and ecosystem functioning has renewed interest in native‐tree restoration as a more sustainable strategy.

Peri‐urban agroforestry for climate mitigation in West Africa: Structural diversity and functional traits as key drivers of carbon storage

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Peri‐urban areas in West Africa are expanding rapidly, often with limited planning and growing exposure to climate risks. Our study shows that agroforestry systems in these landscapes, especially diverse home gardens, can store substantial amounts of carbon when they include structurally complex stands and species with traits that favor biomass ...
