Farming System and Nematodes Affect the Rhizosphere Microbiome of Tropical Banana Plants
(Wiley, 2025-07-02)We studied the effects of farming systems and soil nematodes on the rhizosphere microbial profiles in three banana farming systems (conventional, barbecho and organic) compared with non-cultivated controls. Bacterial 16S ... -
A practical tool to assess regenerative approaches in food businesses
(Frontiers, 2025-06-23)Food systems account for approximately 34% of global greenhouse gas emissions. This figure in itself stresses the urgent need for effective solutions that mitigate impacts while ensuring food security. Regenerative Agriculture ... -
Influence of landscape structure on carbon storage in agroforestry systems with cacao and silvopastoral systems in the Colombian Amazon
(PLOS, 2025-06-23)In the Colombian Amazon region, agricultural and livestock activities lead to changes in land use, transforming complex and heterogeneous natural landscapes into landscapes characterized by a matrix of pastures and forest ... -
Shrunk coexistence: cattle exclusion and nutrient addition intensify competition between native and exotic grasses with low phenological overlap
(Pedro Peres-Neto, 2025-06-08)Exotic plants are becoming increasingly common worldwide, often driven by ecological factors such as domestic livestock grazing and soil fertilization. In temperate grasslands, native C4 and exotic C3 grasses are generally ... -
Assessing land use effects on ecohydrological partitioning in the critical zone through isotope-aided modelling
(Wiley, 2023-09-11)The study examines how different land uses impact ecohydrological processes in the critical zone, focusing on water partitioning between evaporation, transpiration, and groundwater recharge. Using stable water isotopes and ... -
Active and passive chlorophyll fluorescence measurements at canopy level on potato crops. Evidence of similitude of diurnal cycles of apparent fluorescence yields
(Springer Nature Link, 2022-12-17)We performed active and passive measurements of diurnal cycles of chlorophyll fluorescence on potato crops at canopy level in outdoors conditions for 26 days. Active measurements of the stationary fluorescence yield (Fs) ... -
A scenario modelling approach to assess management impacts on soil erosion in coffee systems in Central America
(Elsevier, 2023-05-05)Soil erosion is one of the major causes of soil degradation worldwide, because it causes the depletion of soil organic carbon, nutrients, and water holding capacity. In Central America, coffee production is vulnerable to ... -
A global meta-analysis of soil organic carbon in the Anthropocene
(Nature, 2023-06-05)The study is a global meta-analysis on soil organic carbon in the Anthropocene, based on more than 25,000 primary studies. It examines how land-use change, land management, and climate change affect soil organic carbon ... -
Volumetric pricing in rural Central America: Drivers of adoption and potential effects on water delivery
(Elsevier, 2024-05-31)In rural and peri‑urban areas of Central America, community water organizations (CWOs) provide water to 60 % of the population, thereby playing a pivotal role in achieving multiple Sustainable Development Goals. However, ... -
Variation in Annual Ring and Wood Anatomy of Six Tree Mangrove Species in the Nicoya Gulf of Costa Rica
(MDPI, 2024-11-08)There is limited information regarding the adaptation of anatomical features and growth ring formation to ecological site conditions in Costa Rican mangrove trees. We used the methods and principles of ecological anatomy ...
