  • Can debarking affects sex ratio, population structure and spatial segregation

    Open AccessLuis Beltrán, Angélica Romero-Manzanares et al.ARTICLEEthnobiology and Conservation2024References: 83

    The ecological mechanisms that contribute to maintaining plant populations have been exhaustively examined around the world, but the relative quantification of the effect of anthropogenic processes on these mechanisms in tropical dioecious tree species has not been revealed yet. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of debarking on the sex ratio, population structure, distribution and spatial correlation between the sexes and growth sta…

  • Indigenous caretaking of beargrass and the social and ecological consequences of adaptations to maintain beargrass weaving practices

    Open AccessGeorgia Hart-Fredeluces, Morey Burnham et al.ARTICLEConservation Ecology2022

    Indigenous ecologies have persisted through major social and ecological changes including settler colonialism. Adaptations have been a necessary part of this resilience, however little attention has been given to the consequences of these adaptations for Indigenous Peoples and ecologies. Without exploring these consequences, we are left with an incomplete understanding of adaptation that potentially obscures social and ecological costs associated…

  • Adaptive Management Strategies of Local Communities in Two Amazonian Floodplain Ecosystems in the Face of Extreme Climate Events

    Open AccessJulia Vieira Da Cunha Ávila, Charles R Clement et al.ARTICLEJournal of Ethnobiology2021

    In Amazonia, changes in the frequency and intensity of extreme climate events are occurring and expected to intensify, affecting food security with subsequent social and political problems. We conducted semi-structured interviews in communities of the mid-Solimões River basin (Amazonas, Brazil). Our questions were designed to construct seasonal calendars with residents ( ribeirinhos) to understand climatic patterns and changes in livelihood activ…

  • Creating a space for place and multidimensional well-being

    Open AccessEleanor J Sterling, Puaʻala Pascua et al.ARTICLESustainability Science2020Cited by: 16References: 20

    Achieving sustainable development globally requires multilevel and interdisciplinary efforts and perspectives. Global goals shape priorities and actions at multiple scales, creating cascading impacts realized at the local level through the direction of financial resources and implementation of programs intended to achieve progress towards these metrics. We explore ways to localize global goals to best support human well-being and environmental he…

  • Participatory ethnobotany and conservation

    Open AccessEliana Rodrigues, Fernando Cassas et al.ARTICLEJournal of Ethnobiology and…2020Cited by: 13References: 28

    Background Although multiple studies advocate the advantages of participatory research approaches for ethnoscience, few provide solid contributions from case studies that involve residents in all of the project phases. We present a case study of a participatory approach whose aim is to register ethnobotanical knowledge on the use of plants in two quilombola communities (maroon communities), an important biodiversity hotspot in the Atlantic Forest…

  • An ethnobotanical survey of wild edible plants used by the Yi people of Liangshan Prefecture, Sichuan Province, China

    Open AccessJing Wang, Barnabas C Seyler et al.ARTICLEJournal of Ethnobiology and…2020Cited by: 17References: 42

    BackgroundDue to historical perceptions of Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture (Sichuan Province, China) as being a violent place, and due to its rugged terrain, cultural differences, and relative inaccessibility, few researchers have conducted in-depth ethnobotanical investigations in Liangshan. But wild edible plants (WEPs) are widely consumed by the Yi people of Liangshan, and their associated ethnobotanical knowledge remains relatively unknown…

  • Biocultural restoration in Hawaiʻi also achieves core conservation goals

    Open AccessK B Winter, Tamara Ticktin et al.ARTICLEConservation Ecology2020Cited by: 1

    Biocultural approaches to restoration have demonstrated multiple benefits for human communities, but the ecological benefits and trade-offs involved have received little attention. Using a case study from Hawaii, we examined if forest restoration aimed at reviving and maintaining cultural interactions with the forest is compatible with other priority conservation metrics. We identified species of high biocultural value for an Indigenous (Native H…

  • Drivers of fishing at the household scale in Fiji

    Open AccessRachel Dacks, Tamara Ticktin et al.ARTICLEConservation Ecology2018

    Coral reefs sustain millions of people worldwide, yet in recent years, social, environmental, and climate change have caused major declines in coral reef fisheries. Small-scale coral reef fisheries research has largely focused on community-level drivers of fishing, ignoring the heterogeneities that exist within communities. We used social-ecological indicators from 20 coastal villages in Fiji to identify potential fine-scale, context-appropriate …

    Open AccessEleanor J Sterling, Eleanor Sterling et al.ARTICLEEnvironment and Society2017Cited by: 2References: 30

    Measuring progress toward sustainability goals is a multifaceted task. Inter- national, regional, and national organizations and agencies seek to promote resilience and capacity for adaptation at local levels. However, their measurement systems may be poorly aligned with local contexts, cultures, and needs. Understanding how to build effective, culturally grounded measurement systems is a fundamental step toward supporting adaptive management and…

  • Uras

    Open AccessBambang Hariyadi, Tamara TicktinARTICLEEthnobotany Research and…2012

    Documenting indigenous healthcare practices provides insight into how human communities have adapted to their local environments and can guide culturally appropriate medical care. The Serampas inhabit the border of Kerinci Seblat National Park, Sumatra, Indonesia, and the only ethnobotanical study carried out there was in 1783. We identified the Serampas’ conceptions of health and illness and the medicinal and ritual plants they use; and assessed…
