Cooling CO2 Emissions
Can we reduce carbon dioxide emissions by simply allowing forests to recover?
September 13, 2024
Regrowing tropical forests emit significantly lower soil carbon dioxide than cattle pastures.

Hopeful News for Caribbean Reefs? Low Oxygen May Be More Deadly for Staghorn Corals than High Temperatures
October 25, 2024
First experimental comparison of the effects of temperature and oxygen deprivation on three key Caribbean coral species shows that nightly low oxygen tips the balance of species survival away from tall, elegant, reef-building corals, towards lower, weedy corals, simplifying coral communities.

Drawing out the secrets of coral reef resilience to high ocean temperatures
June 05, 2025
Researchers compared DNA from corals and their symbiotic organisms from two sites along the Pacific coast of Panama to better understand how the different members of the coral holobiont influence their ability to tolerate temperature extremes.

STRI Director Josh Tewksbury’s Remarks on Harassment
December 23, 2021
We are all working together to make tropical biology research safe for everyone by eliminating harassment.
Scientist
Martijn Slot
In my lab we try to understand how climate change affects tropical forests by studying how environmental factors influence the physiology and ecology of tropical trees and lianas. We are interested in identifying threshold temperatures for various aspects of plant performance, including carbon...

Greenhouse “time machine” sheds light on corn domestication
February 07, 2014
Lower atmospheric carbon and cooler temperatures may have contributed to the domestication of corn, a new study shows.
A new coral menace
Dead zones may threatencoral reefs worldwide
March 20, 2017
A coral die-off in Panama was likely due to oxygen depletion instead of the usual culprits of warming, pollution, overfishing and acidification.
