Dispersal Ability Reduces Thermal Specialization and Prevents Climate-Driven Extinctions in a Neotropical Rainforest. [PDF]
We found that species with higher dispersal ability are less specialized in their temperature tolerances and more likely to persist under climate change. By analyzing more than 6 thousand species of plants, invertebrates, and vertebrates distributed in the Atlantic Rainforest, we show that more mobile species can avoid extinction by shifting locations,

Lithobiomes Heterogeneity and Geographic Distance Shape the Landscape Genomics Within Brazilian Mountain Systems. [PDF]
Genomic analyses of Paepalanthus calvus across Brazilian montane ecosystems reveal strong population structure shaped by geographic distance and lithological heterogeneity. Fine‐scale edaphoclimatic factors are the main predictors of genetic divergence among distinct lithobiomes, underscoring the role of substrate‐driven ecological isolation and local ...

Peripheral Budding Following Range Expansion Explains Diversity and Distribution of One-Sided Livebearing Fish. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Peripheral budding occurs when populations diverge from a widespread parental population and speciate along its periphery, facilitated by the interaction of ecological and geographic barriers. This phenomenon results in species that contrast in range size and ecological tolerance and can lead to confounding phylogenies.

Water quality indicators in the Mantiqueira Range region, Minas Gerais state [PDF]
Maintaining the quality of water resources is of great importance for environmental preservation and the quality of life of consumers, and is one of the greatest challenges facing humanity today. Land-use for agriculture and animal farming significantly changes the biological, physical and chemical characteristics of natural systems.

Stream flow regime of springs in the Mantiqueira Mountain Range region, Minas Gerais State [PDF]
The stream flow regime of four springs located in the Mantiqueira Mountain Range region (MG) was evaluated and correlated to the respective recharge area, relief characteristics, land cover and physical and hydrologic soil characteristics. The streamflow regime was characterized by monitoring of discharges, calculating the surface runoff and specific ...

Spatial continuity of soil attributes in an Atlantic Forest remnant in the Mantiqueira Range, MG [PDF]
The spatial characterization of soil attributes is fundamental for the understanding of forest ecosystems. The objective of this work was to develop a geostatistical study of chemical and physical soil attributes at three depths (D1 - 0-20 cm; D2 - 20-50 cm; D3 - 50-100 cm), in an Experimental Hydrographic Micro-catchment entirely covered by Atlantic ...
