Climate Predicts Tree Dispersal Strategies Across Brazil's Ecosystems

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim We investigate the distribution of dispersal modes—endozoochory (via animal ingestion), synzoochory (via animal seed accumulation) and anemochory (via wind)—and seed mass of woody plants across Brazilian ecosystems, testing whether their relative abundance in local plant communities could be predicted by climate, edaphic factors and ...

Using Soil Apparent Electrical Conductivity to Optimize Sampling of Soil Penetration Resistance and to Improve the Estimations of Spatial Patterns of Soil Compaction

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
This study presents a combined application of an EM38DD for assessing soil apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) and a dual‐sensor vertical penetrometer Veris‐3000 for measuring soil electrical conductivity (ECveris) and soil resistance to penetration (PR).

Effects of land management on soil carbon storage in the Brazilian Amazon

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract This study assessed the influence of land use on soil physical and chemical properties and evaluated machine learning (ML) models for predicting soil organic carbon (SOC) content and stocks in the top 0–30 cm layer across selected sites in the Brazilian Amazon. A total of 649 georeferenced samples of surface soil were analyzed for soil texture,

Chemical Attributes of Soil Fertilized with Cassava Mill Wastewater and Cultivated with Sunflower

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The use of waste arising from agroindustrial activities, such as cassava wastewater, has been steadily implemented in order to reduce environmental pollution and nutrient utilization. The aim of this study is that the changes in chemical properties of dystrophic red‐yellow latosol (oxisol) were evaluated at different sampling times after reuse of ...

Effect of Cell Disruption and Protein Extraction on the Structural and Technological Properties of Tetradesmus obliquus Protein‐Rich Extracts

open access: yesSustainable Food Proteins, Volume 4, Issue 2, June 2026.
Despite its considerable potential as a functional food ingredient, T. obliquus faces a major limitation in protein recovery due to the rigidity of its cell wall. In the microalgae industry, protein extraction typically involves two main steps: cell disruption and protein extraction.

Using Multivariate Geostatistics to Assess Patterns of Spatial Dependence of Apparent Soil Electrical Conductivity and Selected Soil Properties

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
The apparent soil electrical conductivity (ECa) was continuously recorded in three successive dates using electromagnetic induction in horizontal (ECa‐H) and vertical (ECa‐V) dipole modes at a 6 ha plot located in Northwestern Spain. One of the ECa data sets was used to devise an optimized sampling scheme consisting of 40 points.
