Conservation

Biodiversity is threatened, and conservation is urgent. The reality of limited resources for conservation requires prioritization among actions, species, and places, and the building of capacity in countries where threats are high.

Wildlife Conservation with Satellite Data

Aug 2023 - Biodiversity - Birds - Conservation

Developing maps to inform species conservation is essential for the future of ecosystem services. We developed the satellite data and indices to make such maps at fine scales.

The human footprint in the forests of Argentina, along with examples of different forests present in the country (Yungas and Andean-Patagonian Forests; photos by N. Politi and Y. Rosas).

Argentina’s wildest forests under threat

Aug 2023 - Biodiversity - Conservation - Land Use

A new map of the human footprint identifies the wildest forests of Argentina and provides valuable information for land use planners and conservationists.
