Predicted impacts of proposed hydroelectric facilities on fish migration routes upstream from the Pantanal wetland (Brazil)

River Research and Applications, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 452-464, March 2020., 2020
Abstract There are 104 hydroelectric facilities proposed to be installed in the watersheds that feed the Pantanal, a vast floodplain wetland located mostly in Brazil. The Pantanal is host to 23 long‐distance migratory fish species that ascend upland tributaries to spawn.

Multiscale Environmental Drivers of Aquatic Insect Assemblages in Cerrado Streams

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
Multi‐scale drivers of aquatic insect communities in Cerrado streams. The gradient (from left to right) indicates increasing spatial scale, showing that abundance is influenced by local factors (conductivity, temperature), taxonomic richness responds to agricultural land use at an intermediate scale, and community composition is structured by regional ...

Tails of Biodiversity: Vertebrate Community Assessment in a Neotropical River Basin via eDNA Metabarcoding

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
This study used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to assess vertebrate biodiversity in headwater streams of the Rio Santo Antônio basin, southeastern Brazil, a tributary of the Rio Doce. A total of 119 vertebrate OTUs were identified, with oxidation–reduction potential emerging as the strongest environmental predictor of species richness.

Caatinga diaspores: Descriptive overview of dispersal units of seasonally dry tropical forests and woodlands

Ecology, Volume 106, Issue 2, February 2025.
Abstract Dispersal unit characteristics provide crucial insights into species ecology and are essential for the conservation and restoration of ecosystems. The Caatinga, the largest ecosystem of seasonally dry tropical forests and woodlands in South America, remains underrepresented in terms of dispersal unit data, which are often scattered across the ...
