  • Is Ethnobiologist Training at Risk? Challenges of a Brazilian Graduate Program

    Open Access•Valdir Brito-Junior, Valdir De Moura Brito Júnior et al.•ARTICLE•Ethnobiology and Conservation•2025•Cited by: 1•References: 11

    The Graduate Program in Ethnobiology and Nature Conservation (PPGEtno, an acronym in Portuguese) was established in 2011 at the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco (UFRPE, an acronym in Portuguese) in collaboration with other institutions in Northeast Brazil. PPGEtno addressed the urgent need to train professionals sensitive to biodiversity conservation issues through an interdisciplinary approach that values traditional knowledge and the rela…

  • The Role of Air Transport Infrastructure Towards Breaking Seasonality in Emerging Tourism Destinations

    Open Access•Carlos Santana, Julie Madsen et al.•ARTICLE•Island Studies Journal•2024•Cited by: 1•References: 12

    This paper examines the impact of air infrastructure development on emerging insular destinations by focusing on Akureyri, located in North Iceland. It examines the intricate relationship between airport infrastructure capacity expansion, the building of human capacity, hospitality infrastructure growth, and seasonality challenges. Through extensive qualitative interviews and literature reviews from stakeholders, policymakers, and academics, the …

  • Blockchain and the emergence of Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs)

    Open Access•Carlos Santana, Laura Albareda•ARTICLE•Technological Forecasting and…•2022

    Decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) are blockchain-based organizations fed by a peer-to-peer (P2P) network of contributors. Their management is decentralized without top executive teams and built on automated rules encoded in smart contracts, and their governance works autonomously based on a combination of on-chain and off-chain mechanisms that support community decision-making. A growing body of literature has emerged exploring DAOs. …

  • The potential of disruptive transport infrastructure for tourism development in emerging island destinations

    Open Access•Carlos Santana, Saverio Francesco Bertolucci et al.•ARTICLE•Island Studies Journal•2022•Cited by: 4•References: 8

    This qualitative research paper investigates the role of transport infrastructure for community and tourism development in emerging island destinations. The Faroe Islands, a trending tourism attraction, have lately become pioneers in subsea tunnel construction. Their innovative and avant-garde road system is replacing cross-sea ferry links and providing users with shorter travel times across the country, part of a national plan which aims to unit…

  • Waiting for the Anthropocene

    Open Access•Carlos Santana•ARTICLE•The British Journal for the…•2019•Cited by: 4•References: 57

    The idea that we are living in the Anthropocene, a new geological epoch defined by human activity, has gained substantial currency across the academy and with the broader public. Within the earth sciences, however, the question of the Anthropocene is hotly debated, recognized as a question that gets at both the foundations of geological science and issues of broad philosophical importance. For example, official recognition of the Anthropocene req…

  • Ambiguity in Cooperative Signaling

    Open Access•Carlos Santana•ARTICLE•Philosophy of Science•2014•Cited by: 5•References: 31

    In game-theoretic signaling models, evolution tends to favor perfectly precise signaling systems, but in the natural world communication is almost always imprecise. I argue that standard explanations for this discrepancy are only partially sufficient, and I show that communication is often ambiguous because signal senders take advantage of context sensitivity. As evidence, I make two additions to the signaling model: a cost for more complex signa…
