Economic valuation of ecosystem services fails to capture biodiversity value of tropical forests
TL;DR: In this paper, a spatially explicit meta-analysis based on 30 studies of ecosystem service values in tropical forests from The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity (TEEB) database, while controlling for economic, environmental and methodological variables was conducted.
Proceedings Article
Active Detection via Adaptive Submodularity
Yuxin Chen,Hiroaki Shioi,Hiroaki Shioi,Cesar Fuentes Montesinos,Lian Pin Koh,Serge A. Wich,Andreas Krause +6 more
TL;DR: This approach is the first to rigorously address the active detection problem from both empirical and theoretical perspectives, and shows that for a rich class of base detectors algorithms, one can derive a natural sequential decision problem for deciding when to invoke expert supervision.
Journal ArticleDOI
"Do insectivorous bird communities decline on land- bridge forest islands in Peninsular Malaysia?"
Ding Li Yong,Lan Qie,Navjot S. Sodhi,Lian Pin Koh,Kelvin S.-H. Peh,Tien Ming Lee,Haw Chuan Lim,Susan L.-H. Lim +7 more
TL;DR: Assemblages of insectivorous birds were clearly depauperate on anthropogenic forest islands in Lake Kenyir and are consistent with forest fragmentation studies in the Neotropics, which provide support for the hypothesis that insectivory birds are the worst affected guild.
Journal ArticleDOI
Economic and social constraints on reforestation for climate mitigation in Southeast Asia
Yiwen Zeng,Tasya Vadya Sarira,L. Roman Carrasco,Kwek Yan Chong,Daniel A. Friess,Janice Ser Huay Lee,Pierre Taillardat,Thomas A. Worthington,Yuchen Zhang,Lian Pin Koh +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a combination of on-the-ground financial, land use and operational constraints are taken into account to find that only a fraction of the mitigation potential may be achieved (0.3-18%).
Book Chapter
Forest biodiversity, carbon and other ecosystem services: relationships and impacts of deforestation and forest degradation
Ian D. Thompson,Joice Ferreira,Toby A. Gardner,Manuel R. Guariguata,Lian Pin Koh,Kimiko Okabe,Yude Pan,Christine B. Schmitt,Jason M. Tylianakis,Jos Barlow,Valerie Kapos,Werner A. Kurz,John A. Parrotta,Mark Spalding,Nathalie. van Vliet +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed that REDD+ actions should be based on the best science and on the understanding that forests can provide more than a repository for carbon but also offer a wide range of services beneficial to people.
