Does production of oil palm, soybean or jatropha change biodiversity and ecosystem functions in tropical forests?
Background: Biofuels, or fuels derived from transformation of biological matter, are hailed by some as a promising source of renewable energy potentially reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

متن کاملDo riparian reserves support dung beetle biodiversity and ecosystem services in oil palm-dominated tropical landscapes?
Agricultural expansion and intensification are major threats to global biodiversity, ecological functions, and ecosystem services. The rapid expansion of oil palm in forested tropical landscapes is of particular concern given their high biodiversity. Identifying management approaches that maintain native species and associated ecological processes within oil palm plantations is therefore a prio...
