AS DIFERENTES ABORDAGENS UTILIZADAS PARA DEFINIR BREJOS DE ALTITUDE, ÁREAS DE EXCEÇÃO DO NORDESTE BRASILEIRO

Sociedade e Território, 2020
A Região Geográfica Nordeste do Brasil é muito heterogênea no tocante às condições ambientais, predominando em seu interior as paisagens e os processos naturais associados a um clima semiárido. Fazem parte desse espaço, entretanto, áreas ambientais de exceção, como os Brejos de Altitude, condicionados pela topografia mais elevada, expressão espacial ...

A new species of Pristimantis Jiménez de la Espada, 1870 (Anura: Strabomantidae) from the “Brejos de Altitude” in Northeast Brazil

Zootaxa, 2022
Pristimantis is the most diverse Neotropical genus of terrestrial vertebrates and is distributed from Central America to Argentina. The last few years have seen the description of several new species of the genus, suggesting that its diversity is still underestimated.

Ecological divergence in the silver moss Bryum argenteum: developmental, ontogenetic and life‐history trait variations across contrasting tropical ecosystems

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Ecotypes of the cosmopolitan moss Bryum argenteum differ markedly in growth, reproductive timing, and allocation across contrasting tropical ecosystems. These patterns reveal strong environment‐ and sex‐dependent life‐history strategies, highlighting the species as a model for studying ecological divergence in bryophytes.

Sensibilidade do modelo SiSPAT em área de brejo de altitude no Nordeste do Brasil

Journal of Environmental Analysis and Progress, 2016
A compreensão e a quantificação das trocas de água e de energia são importantes para propósitos meteorológicos, agronômicos e hidrológicos. Os processos biofísicos envolvidos nessas trocas são numerosos e complexos, dificultando sua medição direta em grandes áreas, de forma contínua e num grande intervalo de tempo, devido ao grande número de ...

Termite assemblages (Blattaria, Isoptera) in two montane forest (Brejo de Altitude) areas in northeastern Brazil [PDF]

Biota Neotropica, 2019
Abstract: Wet enclaves of montane forests in Caatinga domain, locally known as "Brejos de Altitude", are associated with plateau at altitudes greater than 500 m a.s.l. and to orographic rainfall. Termite assemblage structures were studied in two areas of montane forest (Brejo de Altitude) located in the municipalities of Bezerros and São Vicente Ferrer,

Stochastic Modelling of Daily Precipitation in Semi‐Arid Regions Using Markov Chains and Parametric Distributions

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 4, 30 March 2026.
This study applies stochastic rainfall models combining Markov Chains with gamma and mixed exponential distributions to a semi‐arid climate in Northeast Brazil. Model structures were evaluated using Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), with maximum likelihood (MLM) for parameter estimation and cumulative distribution functions (CDFs) for validation ...

Functional Trait Research in Brazilian Bryophytes: Advances, Biases, and Future Directions

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 2, March 2026.
The three‐field plot shows how leading researchers, functional traits, and biomes are interconnected in Brazilian bryophyte ecology. It highlights strong links between reproductive traits and the Atlantic Forest, reflecting research focus and collaboration patterns.

Florística de uma floresta estacional no Planalto da Borborema, nordeste do Brasil

Rodriguésia
O conhecimento disponível sobre a flora das florestas montanas (Brejo de Altitude) do semiárido de Pernambuco aponta duas situações: uma com maior semelhança à das florestas mais próximas à costa atlântica; e outra mais similar às florestas mais secas do

Amid the fallen leaves: Intense collecting in the Northern Atlantic Forest reveals new minute harvestmen species (Opiliones: Stygnidae) within the Area of Endemism of Pernambuco

Austral Entomology, Volume 64, Issue 4, November 2025.
Abstract Stygnids represent one of the most diverse harvestman families, with many endemic species in the Area of Endemism of Pernambuco, a pattern increasingly evident by intensified sampling in the region over the years. The area is also recognised for hosting a group of understudied minute leaf‐litter dwellers stygnids, represented by the following ...

Blowin' in the Wind: Ferns and Lycophytes Connect Biogeographic Refuges in the Atlantic Forest

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Test the floristic structure of fern and lycophyte in the Northeastern Atlantic Forest based on the two sub‐regions of endemism, (1) montane inland wet forests and (2) Coastal Forests. Location Northeastern Brazil's Atlantic Forest, particularly the Coastal and Montane inland wet forests. Taxon Ferns and lycophytes.
