Shifting cultivation remains an important land system in many tropical landscapes, but
transitions away from shifting cultivation are increasingly common. So far, our knowledge on …

Resolving ecological-economic trade-offs between biodiversity and yields is a key challenge
when addressing the biodiversity crisis in tropical agricultural landscapes. Here, we focused …

Sustainable land-system transformations are necessary to avert biodiversity and climate
collapse. However, it remains unclear where entry points for transformations exist in …

Agroforests can play an important role in biodiversity conservation in complex landscapes. A
key factor distinguishing among agroforests is land‐use history–whether agroforests are …

Transformation of forests into agricultural lands threatens biodiversity and ecosystem
functions globally. In the biodiversity hotspot Madagascar, key ecosystem functions along …

Acoustic monitoring captures the sound of nature, revealing biodiversity patterns and
underlying drivers. Acoustic indices are increasingly used to analyse obtained recordings …

Tropical agricultural landscapes often consist of a mosaic of different land uses, yet little is
known about the spectrum of ecosystem service bundles and materials they provide to rural …

The conversion of tropical forests into agriculture reduces biodiversity dramatically.
However, species might differ in their responses, depending on their habitat specialisation …

Understanding how land-use change affects biodiversity is a fundamental step to develop
effective conservation strategies in human-modified tropical landscapes. Here, we analyzed …

Forests and tree-dominated land uses store large amounts of carbon stocks in plant
biomass. However, anthropogenic changes in land use and land cover decrease tree cover …
