Field Notes
Visiting Bacurú Drõa, a community-led study of forest giants in Eastern Panama
Junio 28, 2024
The importance of community participation and consent in all aspects of tropical forest research in indigenous areas is critical but can only be achieved through creating space for dialogue.
The one that hunts with a leap
Between pasture and forest: the crusade to protect the jaguar in Panama
Julio 24, 2024
Fundación Yaguará Panama not only leads the protection of the largest feline in the Americas in cattle ranching areas of the country, but also promotes gender equality by actively involving women in key roles in the project, both at the scientific and community levels.
Noisy bunch
Researchers count manatees using their chatter to recognize individuals
Septiembre 05, 2024
An improved method of identifying manatees by their vocalizations makes it easier to tell them apart, to better estimate their populations and help efforts for their conservation.
Cooling CO2 Emissions
Can we reduce carbon dioxide emissions by simply allowing forests to recover?
Septiembre 13, 2024

Hopeful News for Caribbean Reefs? Low Oxygen May Be More Deadly for Staghorn Corals than High Temperatures
Octubre 25, 2024
First experimental comparison of the effects of temperature and oxygen deprivation on three key Caribbean coral species shows that nightly low oxygen tips the balance of species survival away from tall, elegant, reef-building corals, towards lower, weedy corals, simplifying coral communities.
