Hawaiian tropical dry forests contain diverse assemblages of woody canopy species, including many endemic and endangered species that warrant conservation attention before completely disappearing. Today, in Hawaii are not viable ecosystems. Poor land use practices, fragmentation, non-native plant invasions, inadequate native vegetation regeneration all factors have contributed to their endangerment. Only an ambitious restoration programme includes ungulate exclusion, weed control, fire...
Computational skills are advantageous for teaching students to investigate environmental change using satellite remote sensing. This focus is especially relevant given the disproportionate underrepresentation of minorities and women in STEM fields. study quantified effects both a non-STEM class Earth science sensing modules Google Engine on students’ self-efficacy coding, understanding sensing, interest career research. Additionally, engaged course-based undergraduate research experience...
Abstract Secondary forests constitute a substantial proportion of tropical forestlands. These occur on both public and private lands different underlying environmental variables management regimes may affect post‐abandonment successional processes resultant forest structure biodiversity. We examined whether differences in ownership led to structure, tree diversity, species composition across gradient soil fertility age. collected samples surveyed all trees 82 66 0.1‐ha plots arrayed age...
Disclosure of Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) metrics remains almost entirely voluntary, resulting in incomplete unstandardized data that makes it difficult for stakeholders to collectively compare firms assess their impact. To align reporting, 2020 the World Economic Forum (WEF) proposed a framework consisting asserted were already commonly used by firms. But little supports this claim, as there is no comprehensive evaluation on firms’ disclosure rates these metrics. This project...
