DIFERENTES FORMAS DE VALORAÇÃO DO AMBIENTE: CONFLITOS ENTRE CAMPONESES E MINERADORA NA ZONA DA MATA MINEIRA

Homa Publica, 2019
O avanço da mineração de bauxita no entorno do Parque Estadual da Serra do Brigadeiro, na Zona da Mata Mineira ameaça a territorialidade camponesa ali desenvolvida ao longo de gerações e coloca em confronto duas maneiras distintas de valorar o ambiente ...

Environmental Morphological Divergence and Its Integration With Collective Behavior in Cooperative Pseudoscorpions

Ethology, EarlyView.
In the social pseudoscorpion Paratemnoides nidificator, populations across contrasting urban and peri‐urban environments exhibit marked morphological divergence and consistent sexual dimorphism. Crucially, relative development of the prey‐capture pedipalp apparatus (rather than absolute body size) is positively integrated with proactive collective ...

Hydropower Regulation of Xingu River Discharge Structures Heterogeneous, Sector‐Specific Responses in Pacu Fisheries Along the River Continuum

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydroelectric dams are common in Amazonian tributaries under federal environmental licensing that requires long‐term fisheries monitoring. This study evaluated three fishing systems targeting “pacu” species (Serrasalmidae) in the Xingu River before, during, and after construction of the Belo Monte dam (2012–2023) across four river sectors ...

A Modified Gear Removal Index (GRI) Method to Support the Management of Abandoned Fishing Gear on Coralligenous Reefs

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Abandoned, Lost or otherwise Discarded Fishing Gears (ALDFG) have significant negative effects on marine ecosystems. In the Mediterranean Sea, the impact of ALDFG is particularly relevant on coralligenous reefs. The management of ALDFG focuses primarily on their removal, however this type of intervention may potentially damage the habitat, so ...

Mesoscale Oceanographic Processes Drive the Seasonal Abundance of the Seabob Shrimp Xiphopenaeus spp. on the Eastern Brazilian Shelf

Fisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The seabob shrimp (Xiphopenaeus spp.) is a primary fishery resource in Brazil, with considerable economic and social importance along the coast. While environmental drivers of its life cycle are well‐documented for southeastern and southern populations, the factors modulating populations in the Eastern Brazilian Shelf remain poorly understood,

Impact of climate on the migration phenology of the endangered Little Bustard in Spain

Ibis, EarlyView.
The phenology of animals is closely tied to seasonal climatic patterns so, by altering temperature and precipitation regimes, climate change disrupts the phenological cycles of species. More specifically, the influence of rising temperatures on the phenology of bird migration has been long studied.

Ecology and morphology as drivers of passerine song differentiation across an island archipelago

Ibis, EarlyView.
We conducted an integrative analysis to explore possible explanations for the song differentiation in bird populations from the mainland and the Tres Marías Archipelago (TMA) on the central‐western Pacific coast of Mexico. We first analysed the effect of isolation on cultural transmission by comparing repertoire size and genetic fixation in four ...

Citizen science complements functional, taxonomic and spatial coverage of bird collections in the Pantanal, the world's largest tropical wetland

Ibis, EarlyView.
Species occurrence data are essential for understanding biodiversity patterns; however, the necessary fieldwork to generate them demands substantial resources and time. Citizen science programmes, such as birdwatching initiatives, can complement traditional sampling by expanding data collection.

Fire‐driven forest degradation enhances termite activity and accelerates litter decomposition in the Amazonia rainforest

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Forest degradation increased termite‐mediated litter decomposition, whereas no such effect was detected in undisturbed forests. Reduced ant predation and altered forest conditions were associated with higher termite abundance and faster litter decomposition.

When troglobites set the rules: How cave‐restricted species shape community responses in the richest tropical subterranean hotspot

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Troglobites strongly shape community responses to environmental gradients, weakening patterns when excluded from analysis. High beta diversity dominated by species replacement, driven by distance from entrance and microclimatic factors. Resource availability and microclimate stability are key to maintaining this subterranean biodiversity hotspot ...
