Impact of Shrimp Ponds on Mangrove Blue Carbon Stocks in Ecuador
(2021-06)
Mangrove forests play an important role in mitigating climate change but are threatened by aquaculture expansion. The inclusion of mangroves in climate change mitigation strategies requires measuring of carbon stocks and ...
What information do policy makers need to develop climate adaptation plans for mallholder farmers? : the case of Central America and Mexico
(Springer, 2016)
Scientific and technical information can increase the ability of policy makers to
make strategic decisions. However, climate change policy is often formulated without significant
input from science. We examine whether ...
An Improved Framework for Estimating Organic Carbon Content of Mangrove Soils Using loss-on-ignition and Coastal Environmental Setting
(Springer, 2023-06-22)
The use of loss on ignition (LOI) measurements of soil organic matter (SOM) to estimate soil organic carbon (OC) content is a decades-old practice. While there are limitations and uncertainties to this approach, it continues ...
Efecto de fitohormonas y fertilizantes sobre el enraizamiento y crecimiento de mini-estaquillas de híbridos F de café (Coffea arabica)
(2020)
[Introducción]: En el Centro Agronómico Tropical de Investigación y Enseñanza (CATIE) se está buscando optimizar
la técnica hortícola de enraizamiento de mini-estaquillas de café para la multiplicación comercial de ...
Cuantificación de la macrofauna en un vertisol bajo diferentes sistemas de manejo en el Valle del Cauca, Colombia
(CIAT, Cali (Colombia), 2001)
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 ...
Shade tree Chloroleucon eurycyclum promotes coffee leaf rust by reducing uredospore wash-off by rain
(Elsevier, Ámsterdam (Países Bajos), 2020)
addition, may interact with environment. To better understand shade trees effects on coffee leaf rust (CLR), we
studied three disease stages separately: sporulation, uredospore wash-off by rain, and uredospore deposition ...
The positive association between natural vegetation, native coccinellids and functional diversity of aphidophagous coccinellid communities in alfalfa
(2021-01)
1. A greater taxonomic and functional diversity of natural enemies in agroecosystems is frequently positively associated with more effective pest control, due to the complementarity of species or traits. But this diversity ...
Los agroecosistemas cafetaleros modernos y su relación con la conservación de mariposas en paisajes fragmentados
(2018)
Land use change by the intensification of agriculture contributes to tropical forest fragmentation
and biodiversity loss. In this sense, in comparison with traditional agroforestry systems (AFS), modern
AFS are considered ...
