Spread of invasive ginger Zingiber spectabile (Zingiberaceae) in successional and old-growth tropical forest

Rebecca J. Cole, Christine J. Pardo Dewald, Francis H. Joyce, Vanessa R. Morales et autres

Introduction: Zingiber spectabile, a shade-tolerant ornamental ginger native to Southeast Asia, is invading tropical wet forest understories in Central America. This shade-tolerant species is of concern, yet no ecological impact or management assessment exists. Objective: To examine the invasion patterns of Z. …

Synthesis of Phosphino-iminoquinoline-Type Tridentate Ligands with a Tetrahydroacridine Core for Iron-Catalyzed Hydrosilylation

Nathanael A. Taylor, Jeffrey N. Evenson, Nathan J. Gassaway, Emma L. Richardson et autres

We report the synthesis of a series of phosphino-iminoquinoline (PNN) ligands containing a tricyclic tetrahydroacridine core. The extra ring is hypothesized to create greater rigidity in the iminoquinoline ligand structure, which could impart additional catalyst stability. A series of P- substituted phosphino-iminoacridine …

Large‐Scale Forest Restoration Accompanied by Biodiversity Recovery in Costa Rica's Redistributive Payment for Ecosystem Service Program

Giacomo L. Delgado, Johan van den Hoogen, Daisy H. Dent, Tom Bradfer‐Lawrence et autres

Ecosystem restoration is widely recognized as among the most important means to combat both climate change and biodiversity loss. A vast range of studies have illustrated the potential for local ecological recovery, but its efficacy at large spatial scales remains highly uncertain. …

Integrating belowground recovery into tropical forest restoration design and monitoring

Laura Norwood Toro, Leland K. Werden, Shalom Daniel Addo-Danso, Kelly M. Andersen et autres

There is growing recognition that tropical forest restoration is key for sequestering carbon and enhancing ecosystem resilience. Soils, roots, and soil biota are central to ecosystem function and services, but belowground recovery is largely overlooked in restoration monitoring frameworks. Here, we outline …

Using Common Alcohols to Transform N–H NHC-Palladium Complexes into Reactive Catalysts for the Suzuki–Miyaura Reaction with Aryl Chlorides

Alexandra J. S. Larson, Sydney K. F. Pettit, Rachel N. Owens, Rebecca J. Cole et autres

We demonstrate that the generation of mixed NHC/phosphinite Pd catalysts from 2-phosphinoimidazole ligands using bulky alcohols provides highly active Pd catalysts for cross-coupling reactions. Mechanistic studies suggest that the rapid loss of bulkier phosphinites from the precatalyst leads to more rapid oxidative …

Large-scale recovery in Costa Rica’s payment for ecosystem service program

Giacomo L. Delgado, Johan van den Hoogen, Daisy H. Dent, Tom Bradfer‐Lawrence et autres

Abstract Costa Rica implemented the world’s first national-scale Payment for Ecosystem Service (PES) program in 1996 and now protects over 200,000 hectares. By distributing wealth towards local land-stewards, Costa Rica’s program has helped to limit deforestation at a national scale, but the …

Assessing innovations for upscaling forest landscape restoration

Leland K. Werden, Rebecca J. Cole, Katrin Schönhofer, Karen D. Holl et autres

There is an increasing urgency to implement large-scale ecosystem restoration to mitigate the biodiversity and climate crises. These efforts must be scaled up to counteract the widespread degradation of the world's forests, although restoration costs can often limit their application. Thus, there …

Forest restoration in practice across Latin America

Rebecca J. Cole, Leland K. Werden, Fidel Chiriboga Arroyo, Karina Mendez Quirós et autres

Forest restoration is a promising solution to counteract climate change, biodiversity loss, and meet a host of socioeconomic objectives. While international initiatives highlight potential contributions of forest restoration as a win-win for people and nature, we lack detailed information on how frontline …

Inconsistent recovery of nitrogen cycling after feral ungulate removal across three tropical island ecosystems

Fiona M. Soper, Kimberlee S. Sparks, Rebecca J. Cole, Christian P. Giardina et autres

Abstract Non-native ungulates (sheep, goats, and pigs) have significant negative impacts on ecosystem biodiversity, structure, and biogeochemical function throughout the Pacific Islands. Elevated nitrogen (N) availability associated with ungulate disturbance has been shown to promote the success of resource-exploitive invasive plants. While …

Review and assessment of smartphone apps for forest restoration monitoring

Daniella Schweizer, Rebecca J. Cole, Leland K. Werden, Gerald Quirós Cedeño et autres

With increased interest in forest restoration comes an urgent need to provide accurate, scalable, and cost‐effective monitoring tools. The ubiquity of smartphones has led to a surge in monitoring apps. We reviewed and assessed monitoring apps found through web searches and conversations …

Allene Trifluoroacetoxylation with a 2-Phosphinoimidazole-Derived Bimetallic Rh(II) Catalyst

Kelton G. Forson, Rachel N. Owens, Jacob A. Parkman, Benjamin O. Bohman et autres

We report that a 2-phosphinoimidazole-scaffolded bimetallic Rh(II) complex enables the addition of trifluoroacetic acid across an allene under conditions where monometallic Rh(I) or bimetallic Rh(II) tetracarboxylate catalysts fail. The resulting allyl trifluoroacetate products are isolated in good yield across a range of …
