Baby shark
Fishing exclusion zones to help manage shark populations in Pacific Panama
December 17, 2019
Researchers identify 11 potential nursery areas of locally common and migratory sharks, which could help support shark conservation efforts in Panama and the region.
Bright Spot
Plenty of gloom with a dash of hope: Fossils reveal a lone reef in similar state to coral reefs before human impact
February 28, 2020
Fossil corals show what reefs were like before human impact and reveal a modern “bright spot” reef with apparent long-term resilience to deterioration caused by humans.
Just a little respect
Bocas dolphins may be more sociable while we shelter in place
April 13, 2020
A study of dolphin behavior in the presence of tourist boats informs conservation efforts.
Forest of Giants
What do we know about Darien's forests?
April 15, 2020
A scientific mission in the Panamanian jungle found some of the largest trees in the country
Chronic exposure
Long-term consequences of coastal development as bad as an Oil Spill on Coral Reefs
May 20, 2020
Three decades after the largest recorded oil spill near coastal habitats in Panama, scientists look at how coral reefs recover from acute contamination over time
Stabilize the Climate
A Temperature Tipping Point for Tropical Forests
May 21, 2020
A study in Science by 225 researchers working with data from 590 forest sites around the world concludes that tropical forests release much more carbon into the atmosphere at high temperatures.
Picky eater
Invasive lionfish may be a selective predator
July 30, 2020
By evaluating the diet choices of this species in a semi-natural environment, scientists could improve predictions of how it might affect newly invaded communities

Native trees thrive in teak plantations and may protect the Panama Canal
August 12, 2020
Teak often underperforms on poor soils. By planting valuable native trees in existing teak plantations, researchers will evaluate the potential increase in timber value, biodiversity value and ecosystem services provided.
Studying sharks
An untraditional path for science
September 09, 2020
For Panamanian marine biologist Yehudi Rodríguez, her curiosity about sharks began early in life, watching the National Geographic programs and listening to her father’s stories as an underwater fisherman. This persistent interest led her to pave a path where there were not many opportunities, and to learn as much as possible from the people she encountered during her research projects in the field, especially from artisanal fishermen. Now she has more than 15 years studying sharks, she is a professor at the International Maritime University of Panama and director of Shark Defenders.
