Evaluating Youth Participatory Action Research in the Americas: Comparative Insights on Empowerment, Methodologies, and Social Change

open access: yesJournal of Adolescence, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Youth Participatory Action Research (YPAR) positions adolescents as co‐researchers to investigate and address social issues affecting their lives. While YPAR has gained global prominence, comparative research examining how it is conceptualized and practiced across regional contexts remains limited.

Seasonal Variability of Precipitating Systems in Four Radar Domains of Northeast Brazil

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study analyzes the climatology and evaluates how the physical aspects of precipitating systems are influenced by the dry and wet seasons in Northeast Brazil, highlighting seasonal variations in the frequency, size, intensity, and duration of these systems in the regions of Natal, Maceió, Petrolina, and Salvador.

More pumas (Puma concolor) does not change perceptions: The mismatched response of ranchers to the presence of a top carnivore

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Human‐wildlife conflicts (HWCs) are one of the most critical conservation challenges worldwide. Large carnivores are frequently at the centre of these conflicts because of the perceived and real threats they pose to livestock and human safety.

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

open access: yesPeople 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.

Influência da interação touro x rebanho na estimação da correlação entre efeitos genéticos direto e materno em bovinos da raça Nelore Influence of sire x herd interaction on the estimation of correlation between direct and maternal genetic effects in Nellore cattle

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Zootecnia, 2000
A interação touro x rebanho foi avaliada em uma população com 30.789 registros de animais da raça Nelore nascidos entre 1984 e 1994 em doze fazendas localizadas em três Estados do Sudeste e Centro-Oeste brasileiro, com um total de 48.495 animais no ...

Efeito renoprotetor da estatina: modelo animal de isquemia-reperfusão [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Terapia Intensiva, 2010
OBJECTIVE: Ischemic acute kidney injury (iLRA), with multifatorial cause, presents alarming morbidity and mortality. Statin, HMG-CoA inhibition reductase has shown a renoprotective effect, with antioxidant, antiinflamatory and vascular actions. The heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) can be involved in these pleitropic effects of statin on the renal function. This

Impact of parameterization in multiple acoustic index comparisons: practical cases in terrestrial and underwater soundscapes

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Parameter choices in acoustic analyses (sampling frequency, FFT size and window overlap) strongly influence multivariate soundscape separation. Using terrestrial and coral reef recordings, we show that these settings can exaggerate or mask ecological differences, emphasizing the need for parameter sensitivity testing and transparent reporting in ...

Estimação de parâmetros genéticos para características de crescimento de ovinos Santa Inês utilizando modelos uni e multicaracterísticas Estimation of genetic parameters for growth traits of Santa Inês sheep using single and multiple-trait models

open access: yesArquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2006
Utilizaram-se registros de pesos do nascimento aos 196 dias de idade de 927 cordeiros, filhos de 45 reprodutores e 323 matrizes de ovinos da raça Santa Inês, controlados de 1983 a 2000, com o objetivo de avaliar três modelos que consideraram ou não o ...

Knee height is often right: evaluating device height effects on camera trapping rate

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Camera trap deployment height can introduce systematic biases in detection trapping rates across species of different body sizes. Combining 172 paired sampling points in five experiments across Europe, North America and Africa, our results show that low cameras significantly increase detections of small‐ and medium‐sized species, whereas high cameras ...
