Accelerated forest fragmentation leads to critical increase in tropical forest edge area
Large areas of tropical forests have been lost through deforestation, resulting in fragmented
forest landscapes. However, the dynamics of forest fragmentation are still unknown …

Diversity and carbon storage across the tropical forest biome
Tropical forests are global centres of biodiversity and carbon storage. Many tropical
countries aspire to protect forest to fulfil biodiversity and climate mitigation policy targets, but …
