Hyperdominant Trees Reveal Savanna Vulnerability Under Climate Change
The Brazilian Cerrado's forest structure relies disproportionately on just 30 hyperdominant tree species, which represent 50% of all individuals despite accounting for only 2% of species richness. This study evaluates their vulnerability under climate change scenarios for 2100.

Multiscale Environmental Drivers of Aquatic Insect Assemblages in Cerrado Streams
Multi‐scale drivers of aquatic insect communities in Cerrado streams. The gradient (from left to right) indicates increasing spatial scale, showing that abundance is influenced by local factors (conductivity, temperature), taxonomic richness responds to agricultural land use at an intermediate scale, and community composition is structured by regional ...

ABSTRACT Freshwater habitats face significant human disturbances globally, impacting food security and ecosystems. Protected areas can mitigate biodiversity loss, but limited data on population connectivity hinders conservation management. This study examines pirarucu (Arapaima gigas), a heavily exploited and threatened Amazonian fish, using genomic ...
