Carbon payments as a safeguard for threatened tropical mammals

Autor: Venter, O. Meijaard, E. Possingham, H. Dennis, R.A. Sheil, Douglas Wich, S. Hovani, L. Wilson, K.A.

One reason for the rapid loss of species-rich tropical forests is the high opportunity costs of forest protection. In Kalimantan (Indonesian Borneo), the expansion of high-revenue oil palm (Elaeis guineensis) plantations currently threatens 3.3 million ha of forest. We estimate that payments for ...

A preliminary assessment of large mammal and bird use of different habitats in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park

Autor: Olupot, W. Sheil, Douglas

Understanding species distributions, habitat requirements, and population trends is helpful for implementing effective conservation. But expense often prevents such evaluations. Here, we present a preliminary assessment for a low-cost method – road-side observations – to see how effective it can ...

Partnerships for tropical conservation

Autor: Vermeulen, Sonja J. Sheil, Douglas

Achieving effective conservation in the tropics is a global concern but implicates local people. Despite considerable rhetoric about local participation the vast majority of conservation initiatives continue to be devised and controlled by a small group of powerful, external voices. What is widel...

Disturbing hypotheses in tropical forests

Autor: Sheil, Douglas Burslem, D.F.R.P.

The intermediate disturbance hypothesis (IDH) is a controversial explanation for the maintenance of tropical forest tree diversity, but empirical tests of it are rare. Two data intensive evaluations have recently yielded contradictory outcomes: one for and one against the IDH. This article propos...
