Scientist
Kristina Anderson-Teixeira
I specialize in forest ecosystem ecology, global change ecology, and climate protection through forest conservation. My approach combines data synthesis and analysis, quantitative ecology, and field research and focuses on understanding how climate — and climate change — shape ecosystems, and...

Getting to the roots: How does limiting rainfall affect tropical forest carbon storage?
Abril 26, 2023
An experiment preventing up to 70% of rain from reaching tropical forest soils aims to understand how important underground carbon stocks will respond to climate change.

Lightning strikes more than 100 million times per year in the tropics
Julio 23, 2020
Tropical storms often begin with an impressive display of pyrotechnics, but researchers have largely overlooked the role of lightning strikes in tropical ecosystems.
Tropical scholar
Smithsonian honors STRI’s Joe Wright
Junio 29, 2023

Carbon verification
Bezos Earth Fund grants $12 million to Smithsonian to support major forest carbon project
Julio 06, 2023
A generous grant to support international partnerships and training will enable GEO-TREES to offer the free, online data needed to verify the amount of carbon stored in complex forests worldwide, in real time.
Social Distancing
Like repels like: Social distancing may explain coexistence of biodiverse tree species in tropical forests
Agosto 30, 2023
STRI staff scientist Joe Wright and colleagues present results in Science indicating that diversity among adult tropical trees can be maintained if spatial repulsion among individuals of the same species is greater than spatial repulsion among individuals of different species.
Bird Friendly
Drink Coffee, Eat Chocolate, Save Birds!
Septiembre 29, 2023
The Smithsonian Bird Friendly coffee and cocoa certification program just opened its new Latin American office at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (STRI) in Panama, making it easier for regional coffee and chocolate industries to join the global movement to produce sustainable coffee and chocolate.
GEO-Trees
A revolution in forest carbon verification
Noviembre 27, 2023
The new GEO-TREES initiative addresses the uncertainty of satellite estimates of forest carbon by creating a trustworthy global carbon verification system based on existing collaborations among scientists at forest research sites worldwide. Supported by the Bezos Earth Fund, all data will be available free, online.
Counting carbon
The argument for GEO-TREES, a standard measure of forest carbon
Diciembre 06, 2023
Joshua Tewksbury, director of the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute, explains how the development of a global standard measure of forest carbon will jumpstart the carbon economy.
