Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Although latitudinal gradient of diversity (LGD) is a biogeographic pattern widely shown for distinct animal groups, some display the opposite pattern, with biodiversity peaking away from the equator. These inverse gradients may result from drivers that also overlap with extrinsic factors shaping genetic diversity across taxa, a level of ...

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 3, Page 351-363, April 2026.ABSTRACT Pollination is a key ecosystem service, yet most studies focus on diurnal interactions, often overlooking nocturnal pollinators such as hawkmoths and settling moths. In arid environments, nocturnal pollination plays a crucial role in maintaining native plant species of high biocultural value, as seen in the Caatinga dry forest.

A Educação Ambiental na concepção dos docentes do Curso de Graduação em Engenharia Mecânica
Revista Brasileira de Educação Ambiental (RevBEA), 2018 A Educação Ambiental, quando aplicada em sala de aula, é um caminho para mudar atitudes, estimulando a consciência ambiental, a sustentabilidade e a cidadania. Porém, nem sempre os docentes estão preparados para discutir a temática socioambiental. Assim, a necessidade de saber a concepção dos professores do curso de graduação em Engenharia Mecânica ...

Mapping the density of giant trees in the Amazon
New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 152-168, January 2026.Summary Tall trees (height ≥ 60 m) are keystone elements of tropical forests, strongly influencing biodiversity, carbon storage, and ecosystem resilience. Yet, their density and spatial distribution remain poorly quantified, especially in remote Amazonian regions, limiting our understanding of their ecological roles and contribution to forest–climate ...

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 8, Issue 1, December 2025.Abstract Global climate change has driven breeding programs to develop abiotic stress‐resilient plant varieties. Traditionally, assessing drought resilience involves labor‐intensive and time‐consuming processes. This study used an unmanned aerial system (UAS) to predict key phenotyping traits in maize (Zea mays L.) and monitor plant response to drought

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 17, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract The water and carbon exchange between the land surface and the atmosphere is regulated by meteorological conditions and plant physiological processes. Traditional mechanistic modeling approaches, for example, the Earth system model ICON‐ESM with the land component JSBACH4, are hampered by relatively rigid parameterizations for stomatal ...

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2542-2583, December 2025.ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 17, Issue 11, November 2025.Abstract Accurately predicting terrestrial ecosystem responses to climate change over long‐timescales is crucial for addressing global challenges. This relies on mechanistic modeling of ecosystem processes through land surface models (LSMs). Despite their importance, LSMs face significant uncertainties due to poorly constrained parameters, especially ...
