Healthy relationships
Why do small marine organisms matter for the future of our oceans?
September 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.
One-two Punch
Sea urchins are stuck belly up in low-oxygen hot water
December 11, 2020
As oceans warm and become more acidic and oxygen-poor, Smithsonian researchers asked how marine life on a Caribbean coral reef copes with changing conditions.
Reducing uncertainty
Smithsonian scientists reduce uncertainty in forest carbon storage calculations
January 11, 2021
Helene Muller-Landau, staff scientist, was invited to write an authoritative review about carbon storage in forests. Her team combed through existing studies and came up with some novel conclusions of their own.
Picture the Unseen
A community of scientists put microbial ecosystems back together again using anvi’o
January 14, 2021
Post-doc Jarrod Scott is an active contributor to anvi’o, a set of computational tools to visualize microbial communities.
Aquatic microbes
Secondary forests restore fresh water sources in degraded landscapes
November 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.
Carbon oracle
Predicting uncertain futures for tropical landscapes
January 11, 2022
Deforestation scenarios show the importance of secondary forest for meeting Panama’s carbon goals.
Omayra Meléndez
My Journey to Barro Colorado Island (Part 1 of 3)
July 22, 2022
For many tropical biologists, all roads lead to Panama’s Barro Colorado Island, the most-studied piece of tropical real estate in the world. STRI Intern Omayra Meléndez shares her story about arriving on BCI and how the island is transforming her career.
It’s complicated
Why study symbiotic relationships in Panama?
November 26, 2016
Join us to explore a few examples showcasing the spectrum of relationships among tropical organisms and their consequences from the genome to the global level. How does being in relationship change with time and what triggers tipping points that radically change the partners’ lives?
Indigenous Reforestation
Seeking Win-Win solutions to combat climate change and improve livelihoods in Panama’s indigenous Ngäbe-Buglé Comarca
October 10, 2022
Can smart reforestation lessons from the Smithsonian’s Agua Salud Project in the Panama Canal watershed benefit Indigenous communities on deforested land in Western Panama?
