Best Wishes
Kirk Broders to Become STRI Research Associate
Agosto 19, 2020
STRI will miss Kirk and his family when they move back to the U.S., but look forward to continued collaboration.
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.
Healthy relationships
Why do small marine organisms matter for the future of our oceans?
Septiembre 15, 2020
Beneficial partnerships between diverse marine organisms are often favorable to the health of marine ecosystems as well. Listen to STRI postdoctoral fellow and marine and evolutionary biologist Matthieu Leray describe how mutualistic relationships among coral reefs and small marine species or microorganisms may help them cope with climate change.
Picture the Unseen
A community of scientists put microbial ecosystems back together again using anvi’o
Enero 14, 2021
Post-doc Jarrod Scott is an active contributor to anvi’o, a set of computational tools to visualize microbial communities.
Flowers!
How the Chicxulub Impactor gave rise to modern rainforests
Abril 01, 2021
About 66 million years ago, a huge asteroid crashed into what is now the Yucatan, plunging the Earth into darkness. The impact transformed tropical rainforests, giving rise to the reign of flowers.
Crabosaur
Unique dinosaur-era fossil bridges a gap in the evolution of crabs
Octubre 21, 2021
The oldest and most complete fossil crab ever discovered suggests that these animals ventured onto land at least 25 to 50 million years earlier than previously thought
Aquatic microbes
Secondary forests restore fresh water sources in degraded landscapes
Noviembre 11, 2021
Analyses of microbial communities in streams across different land use types suggests that passive reforestation rapidly restores water quality in lowland tropical watersheds.
A rocky start
Unique agates on a Panamanian island reveal submarine volcanic activity
Mayo 05, 2022
Giant agates found in an island on the Pacific coast of Panama prompted a study on the area’s geology to answer the question of how the Isthmus evolved and became a bridge between two continents.
