Abstract

This release contains the full code used in the manuscript: Miranda et al. (2026) – Protecting tropical forests is more cost-effective for biodiversity and climate than restoration. Contents: Code for generating intervention scenarios (avoid deforestation, avoid degradation, restoration). Scripts for data cleaning, spatial processing, and model fitting, evaluation and projection (biodiversity and carbon). Scripts for producing the main figures and summary statistics used in the paper. This version (v1.0.1) corresponds exactly to the code used to generate the results reported in the manuscript.
