Aptian/Albian (Early Cretaceous) paleogeography of the South Atlantic: a paleontological perspective
Paleontological data obtained in recent years reinforce the hypothesis that Aptian marine sedimentation in the sedimentary basins of the Brazilian continental margin - except the Pelotas basin, the southernmost Brazilian basin - took place under the ...

Opportunities for Translational Water Research in Global Biodiversity Conservation
Abstract Academic researchers and practitioners in water resources disciplines are calling for solution‐oriented and actionable hydrological science, recently encompassed by the term translational water research (TWR). Here, we argue that the interdisciplinary field of biodiversity conservation science (also known as conservation biology) presents ...

On Northeast Brazil Orographic Enhanced Rainfall and Monsoon Dynamics
We provide an updated rainfall climatology (1990–2020) for Northeast Brazil which discusses the role of orographically enhanced rainfall and monsoon dynamics on this climate system. Our work presents strong evidence that this continental‐scale region is under a more extensive influence of the South American Monsoon System than previously described ...
