Assessing future environmental benefits of agricultural abandonment and recultivation
Agricultural land abandonment presents potential environmental benefits through either revegetation, and associated carbon sequestration, habitat and landscape connectivity benefits, or recultivation, which offsets the need for agricultural conversion of natural areas. Yet, the extent and pace of land abandonment depends on future demand for food, energy, and other anthropogenic drivers. Here we quantify the extent and spatial distribution of agr…
Assessing protected area’s carbon stocks and ecological structure at regional-scale using Gedi lidar
Protected areas (PAs) serve as a critical strategy for protecting natural resources, conserving biodiversity, and mitigating climate change. While there is a critical need to guide area-based conservation efforts, a systematic assessment of PA effectiveness for storing carbon stocks has not been possible due to the lack of globally consistent forest biomass data. In this study, we present a new methodology utilizing forest structural information …
The influence of model frameworks in spatial planning of regional climate-adaptive connectivity for conservation planning
Mapping the irrecoverable carbon in Earth’s ecosystems
Avoiding catastrophic climate change requires rapid decarbonization and improved ecosystem stewardship at a planetary scale. The carbon released through the burning of fossil fuels would take millennia to regenerate on Earth. Though the timeframe of carbon recovery for ecosystems such as peatlands, mangroves and old-growth forests is shorter (centuries), this timeframe still exceeds the time we have remaining to avoid the worst impacts of global …
Ecology and economics for pandemic prevention
Investments to prevent tropical deforestation and to limit wildlife trade will protect against future zoonosis outbreaks
