Hyperdominant Trees Reveal Savanna Vulnerability Under Climate Change. [PDF]
The Brazilian Cerrado's forest structure relies disproportionately on just 30 hyperdominant tree species, which represent 50% of all individuals despite accounting for only 2% of species richness. This study evaluates their vulnerability under climate change scenarios for 2100.

Stratigraphic Relations of the Ipubi Formation: Siliciclastic-Evaporitic Succession of the Araripe Basin [PDF]
The Ipubi Formation represents the Aptian-Albian siliciclastic-evaporitic succession of Araripe Basin, NE Brazil. This succession comprises siliciclastic rocks (bituminous shales and claystones) and evaporites (gypsum and secondary anhydrite) and represents part of the lacustrine-shallow marine post-rift phase I.

For your eyes too: a new set of images of biological materials from the scientific commissioning of the MOGNO beamline at Sirius. [PDF]
From whole specimens to histological level reconstructions, images derived from 3D synchrotron‐based microtomography (SR‐microCT) have emerged as a tool that is revolutionizing a wide range of biological research. This paper presents the first commissioning results from experiments to image the anatomy of small animals and specimens from zooarchaeology

Abstract. Basin inversion is a process that takes place when a sedimentary basin is subjected to compressional stresses and may result in the reactivation of pre-existing faults and/or the localization of deformation along new reverse faults. The Araripe Basin (NE Brazil) is an example of a Cretaceous intracontinental aborted rift with its sedimentary ...
