Dawn of Drone Ecology: Low-Cost Autonomous Aerial Vehicles for Conservation

Lian Pin Koh, Serge A. Wich · 1 Jun 2012

Tropical deforestation continues to be a major driver of biodiversity loss and greenhouse gas emissions. Remote sensing technology is increasingly used to assess changes in forest cover, species distributions and carbon stocks. However, satellite and airborne sensors can be prohibitively costly and inaccessible for researchers in developing countries. Here, we describe the development and use…

The Tropical Biodiversity Data Gap: Addressing Disparity in Global Monitoring

Ben Collen, Mala Ram, Tara Zamin et al. · 1 Jun 2008

Nations around the world are required to measure their progress towards key biodiversity goals. One important example of this, the Convention on Biological Diversity's 2010 target, is soon approaching. The target set is to significantly reduce the rate of biodiversity loss by the year 2010. However, to what extent are the data, especially for tropical…

Caatinga: The Scientific Negligence Experienced by a Dry Tropical Forest

Jean Carlos Santos, Inara R. Leal, Jarcilene Silva de Almeida‐Cortez et al. · 1 Sep 2011

Seasonally dry tropical forests (SDTFs) provide a habitat for a diverse number of species and cover significant land areas. Yet, the amount of scientific research they have attracted is minimal. Recently, an international debate on the generality, consequences and forces keeping SDTFs in a position of relative negligence has begun. This paper assesses and compares…

Agroforestry Can Enhance Food Security While Meeting Other Sustainable Development Goals

A. Waldron, Dennis P. Garrity, Yadvinder Malhi et al. · 1 Jan 2017

To achieve global food security, we need to approximately double food production over the coming decades. Conventional agriculture is the mainstream approach to achieving this target but has also caused extensive environmental and social harms. The consensus is that we now need an agriculture that can “multi-functionally” increase food production while simultaneously enhancing social and…

Species Distribution Modeling in the Tropics: Problems, Potentialities, and the Role of Biological Data for Effective Species Conservation

Luis Cayuela, Duncan Golicher, Adrian C. Newton et al. · 1 Sep 2009

In this paper we aim to investigate the problems and potentialities of species distribution modeling (SDM) as a tool for conservation planning and policy development and implementation in tropical regions. We reviewed 123 studies published between 1995 and 2007 in five of the leading journals in ecology and conservation, and examined two tropical case studies…

Tropical Conservation Science template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Tropical Conservation Science format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Tropical Conservation Science template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official SAGE format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Tropical Conservation Science use?
Tropical Conservation Science uses Author–year (Harvard) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, A., Jones, B. and Lee, C. (2023) 'A representative article title', Tropical Conservation Science, 12(3), pp. 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Tropical Conservation Science?
No. DocuGuru generates the sagej LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a SAGE-ready Tropical Conservation Science document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Tropical Conservation Science template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Tropical Conservation Science format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
