The direct and indirect effects of road verges and urban greening on butterflies in a tropical city-state
Mapping socio-ecological vulnerability of tropical peatland fires
Peatlands in Southeast Asia regularly experience fire due to clearance of forests and drainage for agriculture and plantation development. Fire represents a mainstay for rural communities managing tropical landscapes, but these can lead to uncontrolled ‘wild’ fires that pose a major threat to people and the ecosystem, leading to a cycle of increased susceptibility to fire and increased vulnerability of people and peat ecosystem to future fires. U…
Climate drives variation in remotely sensed palm oil yield in Indonesia and Malaysia
Global demand for palm oil is high due to its ubiquitous use as a vegetable oil, oleochemical product, and fuel. Indonesia and Malaysia are the highest producers of palm oil in the world, supplying 83% of the global demand. Although palm oil production is crucial in the region, the factors driving regional variation in palm oil yield remain unclear, with in-situ evidence indicating that management practices, climatic conditions, stand age, and th…
Challenges in Forest Carbon Governance
Meeting global climate change mitigation targets will require enhanced nature‐based carbon sequestration, in which forest carbon schemes play a major role. This is despite criticisms of forest carbon schemes' efficacy, social impacts, and downgrading of other forest functions and services. Against this backdrop, we reviewed existing social science research on the governance of terrestrial forest carbon schemes in Southeast Asia, a forest‐rich reg…
Multi-level actor-network
This paper studies the survivability of peatland-related programs in Indonesia. Despite an increase in the global and national programs for peatland restoration, many of these programs fail to survive in the long-term. To understand this low survivability, this paper examines how peatland-related programs re-arrange the relationship between the local community and peatland across time and how the new actor-network contributes to the survivability…
Spatial patterns and drivers of smallholder oil palm expansion within peat swamp forests of Riau, Indonesia
Protecting the tropical peat swamp forests in Southeast Asia is critical for addressing global sustainability challenges such as climate change and biodiversity loss. However, more than half of these forests have been lost since 1990 due to the rapid expansion of drainage-based agriculture and forestry. Within the oil palm sector, the number of regional smallholder oil palm plantings on peat soils has risen quickly. These activities are challengi…
Using theory and evidence to design behaviour change interventions for reducing unsustainable wildlife consumption
Efforts to shift unsustainable human behaviour are at the crux of many conservation interventions, particularly when addressing illegal or unsustainable wildlife trade. These efforts, often in the form of behaviour change interventions, have proven largely unable to counteract this pervasive issue, however, leading to calls for more robust intervention designs. In behavioural science fields like public health, design processes that integrate huma…
The value of China’s ban on wildlife trade and consumption
Does oil palm certification create trade-offs between environment and development in Indonesia
Environmental and social problems triggered by rapid palm oil expansion in the tropics have spurred the proliferation of sustainability certification systems such as the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). While the RSPO aims to improve the impact of oil palm production on people and environments, its effect on local development, environmental quality, and, especially, potential trade-offs between these outcomes remain unclear. Here, we ev…

Evaluating the social and environmental factors behind the 2015 extreme fire event in Sumatra, Indonesia
Fires in Indonesia release excessive carbon and are exacerbated during drier El Nio years. The recent 2015 fires were affected by an extended drought caused by a strong El Nio event. This led to severe haze conditions across Southeast Asia, resulting in adverse socioeconomic and health impacts. Here, we evaluate the social and environmental factors that contributed to the 2015 extreme fires in Riau, Jambi and South Sumatra. We developed proxy var…
Relative Contributions of the Logging, Fiber, Oil Palm, and Mining Industries to Forest Loss in Indonesia
Indonesia contributes significantly to deforestation in Southeast Asia. However, much uncertainty remains over the relative contributions of various forest‐exploiting sectors to forest losses in the country. Here, we compare the magnitudes of forest and carbon loss, and forest and carbon stocks remaining within oil palm plantation, logging, fiber plantation (pulp and paper), and coal mining concessions in Indonesia. Forest loss in all industrial …

Analysis of deforestation and protected area effectiveness in Indonesia
Environmental Impacts of Large‐Scale Oil Palm Enterprises Exceed that of Smallholdings in Indonesia
The expansion of large‐scale oil palm plantations in Indonesia has taken a heavy toll on forests, biodiversity, and carbon stocks but little is known about the environmental impacts from the smallholder sector. Here, we compare the magnitude of forest and carbon loss attributable to smallholdings, private enterprises, and state‐owned oil palm plantations in Sumatra. During 2000–2010, oil palm development accounted for the loss of 4,744 ha of mang…
