This Global Change Biology article (DOI: 10.1111/gcb.70595) presents research supporting the project “Enabling Large-scale and Climate-Resilient Forest Restoration in the Eastern Amazon.” The article assesses how logging, fire and forest degradation alter taxonomic, functional and phylogenetic diversity in Eastern Amazon forests, demonstrating significant biodiversity losses in disturbed landscapes. The project integrates field ecology, remote sensing and stakeholder engagement to inform evidence-based forest restoration and long-term resilience in the Brazilian Amazon.
