简介：

Lecture abstract：Habitat planning and restoration through methods such as the establishment of natural protected areas, community-based conservation, and implementation of nature-based solutions (e.g., carbon agroforestry projects) is needed to complement ongoing measures to provide habitat for threatened species, restore forest environments and enhance people livelihoods in rural areas. In this lecture, Emerenciano will talk about his previous research with mixed-species bird flocks to preserve threatened Neotropical-Nearctic species; and discuss his work with rural indigenous communities to mitigate climate change effects through afforestation and reforestation projects within the “Plan Vivo” carbon standard framework.

Background: Emerenciano is originally from North Mexico where he obtained a bachelor’s degree in biology at the Autonomous University of Nuevo Leon and a Master of Science degree in Natural Resources Management and Rural Development at ECOSUR. After graduating from the PhD program in Forest Sciences at Lakehead University he continued his work as a wildlife ecologist doing field-based research with Neotropical migratory bird species, community ecology and forest carbon projects in southern Mexico and Uganda.

讲座摘要：主要介绍通过建立自然保护区、社区保护和碳农林业项目等基于自然的解决方案对生态环境规划和恢复，进而为受威胁物种提供栖息地、恢复森林环境和改善农村地区人民生计的现行措施。Emerenciano将介绍通过混合鸟类群来保护濒危物种的前期相关研究进展；并讨论他与农村土著社区在“Plan Vivo”碳标准框架内通过植树造林和再造林项目减轻气候变化影响的工作。

背景：Emenciano原籍北墨西哥，在新莱昂自治大学获得生物学学士学位，在ECOSUR获得自然资源管理和农村发展理学硕士学位。从湖首大学获得森林科学博士学位后，他继续从事野生动物生态学家的工作，对墨西哥南部和乌干达的新热带候鸟物种、群落生态学和森林碳项目进行实地研究。
