Anuran diversity indicates that Caatinga relictual Neotropical forests are more related to the Atlantic Forest than to the Amazon [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 The relationships among the morphoclimatic domains of South America have been a major biogeographical issue of recent years. Palynological, geological and phytogeographical data suggest that the Amazon Forest and the Atlantic Forest were connected during

Sampling Ozone Exposure of Canadian Forests at Different Scales: Some Case Studies
The Scientific World Journal, 2001 The use of passive samplers in extensive monitoring, such as that used in national forest health monitoring plots, indicates that these devices are able to determine both spatial and temporal differences in ozone exposure of the plots.

An interactive identification key for Atlantic Forest tree species based on macroscopic wood anatomy
Rodriguésia, 2021 The Atlantic Forest is considered a biodiversity hotspot because of its exceptional species richness, endemism, and habitat losses. Commercial logging, industrial forestry, and agriculture represent threats to the Atlantic Forest, and even though it has ...

DNA barcoding in Atlantic Forest plants: what is the best marker for Sapotaceae species identification? [PDF]
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2014 The Atlantic Forest is a phytogeographic domain with a high rate of endemism and large species diversity. The Sapotaceae is a botanical family for which species identification in the Atlantic Forest is difficult.

Reemergence of human malaria in Atlantic Forest of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2021 Unforeseen Plasmodium infections in the Atlantic Forest of Brazilian Extra-Amazonian region could jeopardise malaria elimination. A human malaria case was registered in Três Forquilhas, in the Atlantic Forest biome of Rio Grande do Sul, after a 45 years’

The “Atlantis Forest hypothesis” does not explain Atlantic Forest phylogeography [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2016 Leite et al. (1) conclude that isolation according to the forest refuge hypothesis (FRH) may have had a minor, if any, role on Atlantic Forest (AF) biotic evolution based on genetic data from five mammal species. Their evidence comes from signatures of population expansion during both glacial and interglacial periods, and fragmentation of reconstructed
