Elucidating Pathways and Discourses Linking Cocoa Cultivation to Deforestation, Reforestation, and Tree Cover Change in Nicaragua and Peru
(2021-06-17)Cocoa cultivation is labeled as a driver of both deforestation and reforestation, yet the extent of the phenomena varies at farm and landscape level and as a response to national and local contexts. In this study, we ... -
El enfoque de medios de vida combinado con la indagación apreciativa para analizar la dinámica de la cobertura arbórea en fincas privadas: el caso de Costa Rica
(2016)Se propone mostrar que es factible estudiar la complejidad de la dinámica arbórea en fincas privadas en tres zonas agrícolas de Costa Rica. Con este fin, se aplicó la combinación de enfoques de capitales de la comunidad y ... -
Enteric Methane Emissions in Dairy Cows with Different Genetic Groups in the Humid Tropics of Costa Rica
(MDPI, 2023)Enteric methane (CH4) is one of the main greenhouse gases emitted in livestock production systems with ruminants. Among the options to reduce such emissions, animal genetics is one of the factors that is taking relevance ... -
Epidemics and the future of coffee production.
(2021-06)In this perspective, we draw on recent scientific research on the coffee leaf rust (CLR) epidemic that severely impacted several countries across Latin America and the Caribbean over the last decade, to explore how the ... -
Evaluación espaciotemporal del cambio global en el Departamento Sur de Haití, de 1973 al 2017
(2019)Haití es una nación con grandes retos ambientales y sociales. La alta deforestación, falta de planificación territorial, inestabilidad política y económica, y una población ejerciendo presión sobre recursos naturales son ... -
Experiences and Drivers of Food Insecurity in Guatemala's Dry Corridor: Insights From the Integration of Ethnographic and Household Survey Data
(Frontiers Sustainable Food Systems, 2019) -
Experiencias y contribuciones del CATIE al manejo y gestión de cuencas hidrográficas en América tropical

Experimental field exclosure of birds and bats in agricultural systems — Methodological insights, potential improvements, and cost-benefit trade-offs
(ELSEVIER, 2019)Experimental exclosure of birds and bats constitutes a powerful tool to study the impacts of wildlife on pests and crop yields in agricultural systems. Though widely utilized, exclosure experiments are not standardized ... -
Extinction filters mediate the global effects of habitat fragmentation on animals
(Science, 2019)Habitat loss is the primary driver of biodiversity decline worldwide, but the effects of fragmentation (the spatial arrangement of remaining habitat) are debated. We tested the hypothesis that forest fragmentation ... -
Forecast models of coffee leaf rust symptoms and signs based on identified microclimatic combinations in coffee-based agroforestry systems in Costa Rica
(Elsevier, Ámsterdam (Países Bajos), 2019)Coffee leaf rust is a polycyclic disease that causes severe epidemics impacting yield over several years. For this reason, since the 1960s, more than 20 models have been developed to predict different indicators of the ... -
Forecast models of coffee leaf rust symptoms and signs based on identified microclimatic combinations in coffee-based agroforestry systems in Costa Rica
(2020)Coffee leaf rust is a polycyclic disease that causes severe epidemics impacting yield over several years. For this reason, since the 1960s, more than 20 models have been developed to predict different indicators of the ... -
Forest cover mediates large and mediumsized mammal occurrence in a critical link of the Mesoamerican Biological Corridor
(2021)Connectivity of natural areas through biological corridors is essential for ecosystem resilience and biodiversity conservation. However, robust assessments of biodiversity in corridor areas are often hindered by logistical ... -
Genetic diversity and spatial structure in a new distinct Theobroma cacao L. population in Bolivia
(2015)Cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) is an important economic crop in the Bolivian Amazon. Bolivian farmers both cultivate cacao, and extract fruits from wild stands in the Beni River region and in valleys of the Andes foothills. ... -
Genotype–environment interactions shape leaf functional traits of cacao in agroforests
(Springer, Nueva York (Estados Unidos), 2021)The outbreak of frosty (Moniliophthora roreri) and black pod (Phytophthora palmivora) in Central American cacao agroforests throughout the 1980s led to the breeding of Theobroma cacao clones resistant to these diseases. ... -
Global transpiration data from sap flow measurements: the SAPFLUXNET database
(2020)Plant transpiration links physiological responses of vegetation to water supply and demand with hydrological, energy and carbon budgets at the land-atmosphere interface. However, despite being the main land evaporative ... -
Good data are not enough: Understanding limited information use for climate risk and food security management in Guatemala.
(2020)Climate extremes are one of the main drivers of acute food insecurity. In Guatemala, acute food insecurity reaches alarming levels when the usual dry period during the bimodal rainy seasons is extended or starts earlier ...
