Relation between environmental variables and the fish community structure in streams of das Mortes and Xingu river basins – MT, Brazil [PDF]
Biotemas, 2013 Environmental variables may determine and structure the composition of fish fauna. Studies comparing differences between physical and chemical variables of water between close river basins are few.

Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.Abstract The land has been a source of capital accumulation since colonization through extractive activities like mining and industrial agriculture. Indigenous peoples have profoundly different relationships with the land, which are more relational than extractive. However, their knowledge has been subjugated by and systematically excluded from Western

Unilateral Action on Climate Change and the Moral Obligation to Take Leadership
Journal of Social Philosophy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We claim that a moral obligation to take climate leadership by means of unilateral mitigation depends on the existence of a plausible follow‐the‐leader mechanism whereby unilateral mitigation by some increases the probability of sufficient mitigation by others to avert catastrophic climate impacts.

The importance of forest structure for carbon fluxes of the Amazon rainforest
Environmental Research Letters, 2018 Precise descriptions of forest productivity, biomass, and structure are essential for understanding ecosystem responses to climatic and anthropogenic changes. However, relations between these components are complex, in particular for tropical forests. We

Molecular Ecology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT River barriers have long played a central role in diversification models of tropical regions, including the exceptionally biodiverse island Madagascar. Although their role is best understood by integrating additional factors such as elevation and the ecological niche of a species, empirical studies integrating these variables remain rare.

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Drying and drought in tropical forests, which have some of the highest net primary productivity on Earth, are likely to alter root dynamics, ecosystem function, and carbon (C) storage. We used a chronic drying experiment in four lowland Panamanian forests to investigate whether soil drying shifts tropical forest root production from surface to ...
