The Plot
Science is a team effort: 40 years of forest dynamics research on Barro Colorado Island (Part 2 of 3)
July 26, 2022
Visiting scientist Camille Delavaux and intern, Omayra Meléndez, celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the ForestGEO 50-hectare plot, a unique forest ecology research tool, and the people who make it possible.
Nature’s resilience
Where decay breathes life
March 11, 2025
From sonic tomographies to global biodiversity negotiations, this journey through research, resilience, and connection reveals how even the smallest organisms can shape entire ecosystems and inspire lasting change.
Linking the ground, air and space
Why is NASA studying tropical ecosystems?
April 21, 2025
A NASA plane came to Panama to acquire aerial images to inform scientists about the diversity of tropical ecosystems. At the same time, researchers from the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (STRI) in Panama collected similar data from the ground. The goal: to create an algorithm to better understand tropical ecosystems using satellite remote sensing in the future.
The forest breathes
Above the tropical forest canopy, sensors capture the fluxes of gases between the trees and the atmosphere
June 13, 2025
The air moving above the forest carries valuable information about how trees absorb carbon, and what may happen in the future as global temperatures rise.

Mark Torchin
My lab’s research focuses on coastal marine ecology with an emphasis on host-parasite and consumer interactions, infectious diseases and biological invasions. I focus on how trophic interactions such as parasitism and predation alter populations, community structure and ecosystems. Parasites are...
Seedlings and tropical biodiversity
Whose shadow is safer?
September 27, 2017
A novel research project takes aim at the ageless question of what influences tropical seedling survival.
What stops mass extinctions?
Lessons From Amphibian Die-off in Panama
March 30, 2018
What slows or stops a disease epidemic if the pathogen is still present? It appears that wild frogs are becoming increasingly resistant to the chytrid fungal disease that has decimated amphibian populations around the world.
The Arbovirus Carriers
Tracking Aedes Mosquito Invasions in Panama
April 09, 2018
Mosquitoes in the genus Aedes, which can carry dangerous viruses causing yellow fever, chikungunya and Zika, invaded the crossroads of the Americas multiple times, by land and by sea.
