Woody structure recovered relatively quickly, but basal area, non-woody plant diversity, and native composition remained below old-growth conditions. Introduced species remained important, showing that structural recovery can mask slower biodiversity recovery.
The study tests whether removing dense fern cover can release arrested forest succession and whether remnant trees facilitate recruitment. It is a restoration-process study, not a climate-adaptation impact evaluation.
The project had not yet met its reforestation objectives, but natural succession had produced substantial vegetation recovery. Non-native trees dominated, showing that recovery does not necessarily equal restoration to the planned composition.
This practical manual addresses Nature-based solutions, Ecological restoration, Coastal protection, and Mangroves. It focuses on Caribbean and covers Marine and coastal ecosystems. Its reported or expected contributions include stronger climate resilience and adaptive capacity, ecosystem conservation and restoration, and greater coastal protection and marine ecosystem resilience.
This project profile addresses Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA), Climate change, and Multi-ecosystem approach. It has global scope and covers a multi-ecosystem perspective. Its reported or expected contributions include stronger climate resilience and adaptive capacity.
This technical report addresses Nature-based solutions, Disaster risk reduction, and Multi-ecosystem approach. It has global scope and covers a multi-ecosystem perspective. Its reported or expected contributions include reduced climate and disaster risk, and stronger climate resilience and adaptive capacity.
This interactive platform addresses Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA), Climate change, Biodiversity, Disaster risk reduction, and Multi-ecosystem approach. It has global scope and covers a multi-ecosystem perspective. Its reported or expected contributions include reduced climate and disaster risk, stronger climate resilience and adaptive capacity, ecosystem conservation and restoration, and improved governance and evidence-based decision-making.
This interactive platform addresses Nature-based solutions, Climate change, Disaster risk reduction, and Multi-ecosystem approach. It has global scope and covers a multi-ecosystem perspective. Its reported or expected contributions include reduced climate and disaster risk, and stronger climate resilience and adaptive capacity.
The resource describes recognized benefit pathways—hazard buffering, ecosystem-service continuity, and community resilience—but does not present a research method, sample, or measured intervention effect.
This project profile addresses Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA), Biodiversity, Environmental governance, Urban adaptation, and Community participation. It focuses on Dominican Republic; Dominica and covers Urban ecosystems. Its reported or expected contributions include reduced climate and disaster risk, stronger climate resilience and adaptive capacity, ecosystem conservation and restoration, and improved governance and evidence-based decision-making.
