Deforestation and degradation of tropical old-growth forests has the potential to cause
catastrophic species extinctions. In this review, we assess whether regenerating secondary …

Human land use has modified the structure and function of terrestrial landscapes throughout
much of the world, with cropping and livestock grazing the major drivers of landscape …

For decades, conservation and research initiatives in tropical forests have focused almost
exclusively on old-growth forests because scientists believed that these “pristine” …

Tropical montane forests (TMFs) are major centers of evolutionary change and harbor many
endemic species with small geographic ranges. In this systematic map, we focus on the …

Deforestation for agriculture in the tropics, followed by abandonment, has resulted in large

Annual emissions of CO2, CH4, CO, N2O, and NOx from biomass burning in shifting
cultivation systems in tropical Asia, Africa, and America were estimated at national and …

Food availability for forest birds is a function of habitat type, forest management regime, and
season. In winter, it is also impacted by variations in the weather. In the current study we …

La resiliencia es ya uno de los marcos analíticos más importantes para estudiar los
problemas socioecológicos. La migración forzada por razones ambientales es una de las …

Exurban development is an accelerating land use trend in the United States with new
housing units emerging in formerly closed forests. Conservation practitioners and planners …

Forest birds respond to a diverse set of environmental factors, including those altered by
