• Rates and drivers of mangrove deforestation in Southeast Asia, 2000–2012 (2015, background): “Reforms of the rice market in 2003, and accompanying suggestions of further liberalization by the government, might have stimulated some increased activity in the private market owing to price increases (18, 35).”
• Creation of a high spatio-temporal resolution global database of continuous mangrove forest cover for the 21st century (CGMFC-21) (2014, background): “Aquaculture has expanded substantially in Myanmar since 1999 (Hishamunda et al., 2009) and this may be the driving force behind the deforestation, although rice cultivation is additionally noted as a major driver of mangrove loss in the Ayerwaddy Delta region of Myanmar (Webb et al., 2014).”
