Bird communities in forested and human-modified landscapes of Central Panama: a baseline survey for a native species reforestation treatment

Van Bael, Sunshine A.; Zambrano, Ruby; Hall, Jefferson S. (2013)

While deforestation continues to be a threat to species diversity in the tropics, reforestation either by natural succession or human tree planting is also occurring. Very little is known about how bird communities respond ...
Changing gears during succession: shifting functional strategies in young tropical secondary forests

Craven, Dylan; Hall, Jefferson S.; Berlyn, Graeme P.; Ashton, Mark S.; van Breugel, Michiel (2015)
Controls over aboveground forest carbon density on Barro Colorado Island, Panama

Mascaro, Joseph; Asner, G. P.; Muller-Landau, Helene C.; van Breugel, Michiel; Hall, Jefferson S.; Dahlin, K. (2011)

Despite the importance of tropical forests to the global carbon cycle, ecological controls over landscape-level variation in live aboveground carbon density (ACD) in tropical forests are poorly understood. Here, we conducted ...
Environmental gradients and the evolution of successional habitat specialization: a test case with 14 Neotropical forest sites

Letcher, Susan G.; Lasky, Jesse R.; Chazdon, Robin L.; Norden, Natalia; Wright, S. Joseph; Meave, Jorge A.; Pérez-García, Eduardo A.; Muñoz, Rodrigo; Romero-Pérez, Eunice; Andrade, Ana; Andrade, José Luis; Balvanera, Patricia; Becknell, Justin M.; Bentos, Tony V.; Bhaskar, Radika; Bongers, Frans; Boukili, Vanessa; Brancalion, Pedro H.

S.; Mesquita, Rita C. G.; Mora, Francisco; Muscarella, Robert; Paz, Horacio; Pineda-García, Fernando; Powers, Jennifer S.; Quesada-Monge, Ruperto; Rodrigues, Ricardo R.; Sandor, Manette E.; Sanaphre-Villanueva, Luc; Schüller, Elisabeth; Swenson, Nathan G.; Tauro, Alejandra; Uriarte, María; van Breugel, Michiel; Vargas-Ramírez, Orlando; Viani, Ricardo A. G.; Wendt, Amanda L.; Williamson, G. B. (2015)

* Successional gradients are ubiquitous in nature, yet few studies have systematically examined the evolutionary origins of taxa that specialize at different successional stages. Here we quantify successional habitat ...
An evaluation of farmers' experiences planting native trees in rural Panama: implications for reforestation with native species in agricultural landscapes

Garen, Eva J.; Saltonstall, Kristin; Slusser, Jacob L.; Mathias, Shane; Ashton, Mark S.; Hall, Jefferson S. (2009)

In the Republic of Panama, reforestation with native species is of great interest, but many landholders often do not participate in tree planting projects and little information exists about landholder interest in, or ...
Forests in post-conflict Democratic Republic of Congo: Analysis of a priority agenda

Debroux, Laurent; Topa, Giuseppe; Hart, Terese; Kaimowitz, David; Karsenty, Alain; Abdon, Awono; Amsini, Fidele; Aveling, Conrad; Bertrand, Alain; Bekhechi, Mohammed; Bravi, Carlo; Chezeaux, Eric; Chomitz, Kenneth; Dewachter, Pauwel; d'Huart, Jean-Pierre; Diaw, Chimere; Dieterle, Gerhard; Dijire, Abderhamane; Dupain, Jef; Erdlenbruch, Katrin; Fauvet, Nicolas; Forni, Eric; Hall, Jefferson S.; Kakinda, Joseph; Kalambay, Gaston; Diwa, Kapupu; Laporte, Nadine; Lumbuenamo, Raymond; Makana, Jean-Remy; Malkombo, Joseph; Megevand, Carole; Mehlman, Patrick; Montagne, Pierre; Mpoyi, Augustin; Mukadi, Kandonde; Mwinyihali, Robert; Ndoye, Ousseynou; Ngomba, Clotilde; Ngoy, Bienvenu; Pagiola, Stefano; Roda, Jean-Marc; Rossignol, Ivan; Russel, Diane; Schenkman, Nathan; Schinkel, Rolf; Schmidt-Soltau, Kai; Staver, Carla; Tshamba, Martin; Tshombe, Richard; Yambayamba, Norbert (2007)
Guía para la propagación de 120 especies de árboles nativos de Panamá y el neotrópico

Roman, Francisco; De Liones, Rivieth; Sautu, Adriana; Deago, Jose; Hall, Jefferson S.; (2012)
High-fidelity national carbon mapping for resource management and REDD+

Asner, Gregory P.; Mascaro, Joseph; Anderson, Christopher; Knapp, David E.; Martin, Roberta E.; Kennedy-Bowdoin, Ty; van Breugel, Michiel; Davies, Stuart James; Hall, Jefferson S.; Muller-Landau, Helene C.; Potvin, Catherine Jeanne; Sousa, Wayne; Wright, S. Joseph; Bermingham, Eldredge (2013)
Impacts of herbicide application and mechanical cleanings on growth and mortality of two timber species in Saccharum spontaneum grasslands of the Panamá Canal watershed

Craven, Dylan J.; Hall, Jefferson S.; Verjans, Jean-Marc (2009)

Reforestation has been suggested as a strategy to control Saccharum spontaneum, an invasive grass that impedes regeneration in disturbed areas of the Panama Canal Watershed (PCW). In this study, the effects of different ...
Liana effects on biomass dynamics strengthen during secondary forest succession

Lai, Hao Ran; Hall, Jefferson S.; Turner, Benjamin L.; van Breugel, Michiel (2017)

Secondary forests are important carbon sinks, but their biomass dynamics vary markedly within and across landscapes. The biotic and abiotic drivers of this variation are still not well understood. We tested the effects of ...
Preface

Larsen, Matthew C. (Inter-American Development Bank, 2015)
Rapid Liana Colonization along a Secondary Forest Chronosequence

Barry, Kathryn E.; Schnitzer, Stefan A.; van Breugel, Michiel; Hall, Jefferson S. (2015)

Lianas (woody vines) can have profound effects on tree recruitment, growth, survival, and diversity in tropical forests. However, the dynamics of liana colonization soon after land abandonment are poorly understood, and ...
Seed and seedling survival of African mahogany (Entandrophragma spp.) in the Central African Republic: Implications for forest management

Hall, Jefferson S. (2008)

African mahoganies of the genus Entandrophragma are among the most valuable and important timber species harvested in Central Africa, representing more than 70% of total export volume from many areas. In spite of the ...
Teak cattle production tradeoffs for Panama Canal Watershed small scale producers

Stefanski, Stephanie F.; Shi, Xiangying; Hall, Jefferson S.; Hernandez, Andres; Fenichel, Eli P. (2015)

Reforestation and forest conservation are important issues in the Panama Canal Watershed (PCW). Uncertainty remains about relative net benefits of profit-maximizing timber rotations compared to the net present value of ...
A universal airborne LiDAR approach for tropical forest carbon mapping

Asner, Gregory P.; Mascaro, Joseph; Muller-Landau, Helene C.; Vieilledent, Ghislain; Vaudry, Romuald; Rasamoelina, Maminiaina; Hall, Jefferson S.; van Breugel, Michiel (2012)

Airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) is fast turning the corner from demonstration technology to a key tool for assessing carbon stocks in tropical forests. With its ability to penetrate tropical forest canopies ...
