CHEMICAL ELEMENTS ANALYSIS OF THE SOIL AT AN URBANIZATION GRADIENT IN THE ATLANTIC FOREST [PDF]
Revista Árvore, 2021 The Atlantic Forest is home to the largest urban centers in Brazil, which modify various aspects of the natural quality of this forest. Soil chemical elements from three different sites in the Atlantic Forest in the state of Rio de Janeiro were analyzed:

Covariate-informed latent interaction models: Addressing geographic & taxonomic bias in predicting bird-plant interactions [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Reductions in natural habitats urge that we better understand species' interconnection and how biological communities respond to environmental changes. However, ecological studies of species' interactions are limited by their geographic and taxonomic focus which can distort our understanding of interaction dynamics.

Insects, 2019 Knowledge of buprestid chemical ecology is sparse but the appearance of the invasive pest Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire in North America has provided the impetus to study in detail the semiochemistry and ecology of this important buprestid.

Verrucomicrobia in Brazilian Atlantic Forest Soil [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2011 The Brazilian Atlantic forest is one of the main biodiversity hot spots in the world ([4][1]). This biome stretches along the Brazilian Atlantic coast, from the state of Rio Grande do Norte to Rio Grande do Sul, with an original area of 1,233,875 km2 that has been reduced to less than 8% of ...

Toward Data-Driven Glare Classification and Prediction for Marine Megafauna Survey [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Critically endangered species in Canadian North Atlantic waters are systematically surveyed to estimate species populations which influence governing policies. Due to its impact on policy, population accuracy is important. This paper lays the foundation towards a data-driven glare modelling system, which will allow surveyors to preemptively minimize ...

Sensitivity of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation to South Atlantic freshwater anomalies [PDF]
, 2011 The sensitivity of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) to changes in basin integrated net evaporation is highly dependent on the zonal salinity contrast at the southern border of the Atlantic. Biases in the freshwater budget strongly affect the stability of the AMOC in numerical models.

Monitoring Spruce Budworm with Light Traps: The Effect of Trap Position
Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2014 Daily records of adult spruce budworms, Choristoneura fumiferana (Clemens) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), captured at light traps at multiple locations in New Brunswick in the 1970s, are analyzed in relation to the physical position of light traps (tree ...
