Cost Analysis Insights for Offshore CCS Hubs: A Case Study of the Santos Basin, Brazil

Greenhouse Gases: Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The reuse of decommissioned offshore platforms for geological carbon storage offers a cost‐effective and technically feasible strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in emerging economies. This study presents a comprehensive techno‐economic assessment of offshore carbon capture and storage (CCS) hubs in Brazil, with a focus on the Merluza ...

Evapotranspiration Profiles and Trends in Seasonally Dry and Seasonally Humid Tropical Forests

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Moisture availability and vegetation are decisive factors in ET variations, which are greater in the Atlantic Forest. Precipitation contributes positively to ET variations (r = 0.20–0.67). Significant trends (p < 0.05) in ET were identified, with opposing patterns.

Diurnal Air–Surface Temperature Dynamics in Hong Kong: An Analysis Across Land Use and Climate Zones

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Daytime and nighttime air temperature (Ta) from automatic weather stations and land surface temperature (Ts) derived from ASTER and Landsat 8–9 are used to examine the relationship between Ta and Ts. The spatial and statistical characteristics of Ta − Ts dynamics are further analysed across land use (LU) and local climate zones (LCZ).

Novelty for the flora of Espírito Santo, Brazil: a new species of Ouratea Aubl. (Ochnaceae)

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Here, we describe and illustrate the new species Ouratea oberdanii Fraga & Deccache, which is named after Dr Oberdan José Pereira. This new species is found in the mountainous regions of the evergreen Atlantic Forest in the Brazilian state of Espírito Santo. Ouratea oberdanii is similar to O. linearis (A.Gray) Sastre & Offroy and O.

Time tells: plasticity and developmental asynchrony underlie trait variation in a dune‐building grass

Oikos, EarlyView.
Habitat‐modifying plants engineer landscapes through plant‐environment feedbacks. The strength of these feedbacks is determined by above‐ and below‐ground traits shaping landscape morphology. Besides interspecific differences, recent findings highlight that intraspecific trait variation, such as shoot density, can also influence landscape morphology ...

From maps to mandates: Multitemporal vegetation cover analysis as a tool to evaluate environmental judicial decisions

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the use of multitemporal vegetation cover analysis as a tool to assess the ecological effectiveness of judicial decisions that recognize the rights of nature, using Colombia's 2016 T‐622 decision on the Atrato River as a case study.

Fish loss in tropical coastal ecosystems can jeopardise nutrient supply to traditional fishing communities: A case study from Northeast Brazil

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Fisheries constitute one of the major benefits that oceans provide for people. Yet anthropogenic pressures and global changes are disrupting coastal systems, eroding marine biodiversity and threatening the food security of traditional populations.

Coastal area management in South Asia: a comparative perspective (Background Paper prepared for South Asia Workshop on Fisheries and Coastal Area Management, 26 September-1 October 1996, Madras, India) [PDF]

, 1996
Most of the world's fisheries and fishing communities are supported by coastal areas. Consequently, the well-being and future of the fishery sector depend on the health of the coastal ecosystem.
