Surface and boundary layer exchanges of volatile organic compounds, nitrogen oxides and ozone during the GABRIEL campaign [PDF]

, 2008
We present an evaluation of sources, sinks and turbulent transport of nitrogen oxides, ozone and volatile organic compounds (VOC) in the boundary layer over French Guyana and Suriname during the October 2005 GABRIEL campaign by simulating observations ...

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Comparative phylogeography of ants in the Brazilian Atlantic Rainforest

, 2016
Here we present for the first time a comparative phylogeography for BAF using invertebrates and UCEs to achieve an high number of loci at the same time and bring a new perspective to the view on history in this hyperdiverse biome.

Precipitation and tree biomass correlate with the diversity and functional composition of tropical rainforest cricket assemblages across climate and disturbance gradients

Ecography, EarlyView.
Disturbance‐driven changes in rainforest structure and environmental conditions can alter ecosystem functioning, yet the consequences for invertebrate communities – key contributors to decomposition, herbivory, and trophic interactions – are not fully understood, particularly in relation to structural changes in vegetation.

Infection of Amblyomma ovale by Rickettsia sp. strain Atlantic rainforest, Colombia

Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2014
Our goal was to understand rickettsial spotted fevers' circulation in areas of previous outbreaks reported from 2006 to 2008 in Colombia. We herein present molecular identification and isolation of Rickettsia sp. Atlantic rainforest strain from Amblyomma ovale ticks, a strain shown to be pathogenic to humans.

Atlantic rainforest natural regeneration in fragmented formations affected by increasing human disturbance

Journal of Environmental Management, 2023
Forests provides major ecosystem services worldwide. The Brazilian Atlantic Forest (BAF) has been dramatically devastated, with fragmentation processes jeopardizing its long-term sustainability. This study investigated the structure and successional dynamics in BAF natural regeneration along an anthroposequence characterized by increasing human ...

Taxonomic treatment, geographic distribution and preliminar conservation status of Croton sect. Barhamia subsect. Barhamia (Euphorbiaceae) in Brazil

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
The genus Croton (Euphorbiaceae) is an exceptionally megadiverse genus, encompassing roughly 1200 species that are predominantly distributed across tropical regions globally. For the New World, the genus is organized into three subgenera (Adenophylli, Geiseleria and Quadrilobi) and 31 sections, with C. sect. Barhamia standing out with its approximately
