Words, Birds, and Watercolor: an Interview with Charlotte Steeves
Febrero 27, 2019
Charlotte Steeves studies the relationship between land use and seasonal river stream flow at STRI as part of the Agua Salud project. She has been a STRI intern since January 2018. However, her involvement with Panama goes back much further: In some ways it seems like she’s been preparing for this adventure for her whole life.

Humpback whales may risk collision with vessels in the Magellan Strait
Mayo 26, 2020
By tagging and tracking migrating humpback whales that feed in the Magellan Strait in Chile, the scientists were able to provide policy recommendations to reduce the risk of collisions
The great flood
Animated maps of sea level rise: the Isthmus of Panama during the last 26,000 years
Septiembre 11, 2020
These maps dramatically illustrate how rising sea levels completely altered the shape of Panama’s coastline, creating islands and submerging large areas of land.
Hungry megaherbivores
How do Giraffes and Elephants alter the african savanna landscape?
Septiembre 15, 2020
Through their foraging behavior across the diverse topography of the African savanna, megaherbivores may be unknowingly influencing the growth and survival of vegetation on valleys and plateaus, while preserving steep slopes as habitat refugia.

The ecological effects of lightning in a tropical forest
Marzo 02, 2021
Lightning is common in the tropics, but its ecological effects in tropical forests are poorly understood. Steve Yanoviak, STRI research associate and professor at the University of Louisville, will summarize the basic physics of lightning, how we study lightning in Panama and the importance of lightning as an agent of tropical tree mortality.
