The value of local ecological knowledge to guide tree species selection in tropical dry forest restoration

Tobias Fremout et al.

Summary: It is crucial to prioritize tree species that are useful to local communities, taking into account their threat status and resistance to stress factors. Local ecological knowledge can play a significant role in filling scientific knowledge gaps. The study found that local perceptions on species' usefulness, threat status, and stress resistance largely align with scientific knowledge, emphasizing the importance of integrating local ecological knowledge into species selection strategies for successful forest restoration efforts.

Impacts of biodiversity and biodiversity loss on zoonotic diseases

Felicia Keesing et al.

Summary: Biodiversity can have both positive and negative impacts on human health. Certain animals are more likely to be zoonotic hosts, and they tend to proliferate in areas with high human activity, increasing the transmission of pathogens. Therefore, biodiversity loss may increase the risk of human exposure to a variety of pathogens.

Dynamic seed zones to guide climate-smart seed sourcing for tropical dry forest restoration in Colombia

Tobias Fremout et al.

Summary: Tree-based forest landscape restoration interventions require knowledge on seed sources and planting material suitability. It is recommended to combine locally sourced material with 'climate-matched' provenances to adapt to climate change. Genetic and environmental data can be used to delineate dynamic seed zones for restoration of threatened ecosystems.

Ancient Faunal History Revealed by Interdisciplinary Biomolecular Approaches

Erika Rosengren et al.

Summary: Advancements in biomolecular technologies have allowed for a greater understanding of the evolutionary processes of ancient faunal diversity, aiding in identifying potential causes of species extinction and human impacts on wild and domestic species. However, there is still a lack of interdisciplinary studies exploring the relationship between ancient faunal diversity dynamics and environmental and anthropogenic influences.
