Espécie invasora em reservas naturais: caracterização da população de Achatina fulica Bowdich, 1822 (Mollusca - Achatinidae) na Ilha Rasa, Guaraqueçaba, Paraná, Brasil [PDF]

open access: yesBiota Neotropica, 2005
O caramujo africano Achatina fulica é uma das cem espécies invasoras do mundo, causando sérios danos principalmente em ilhas. Objetivou-se caracterizar a população de A. fulica na Ilha Rasa, Guaraqueçaba, PR, Brasil. Coletas sazonais diurnas da A. fulica e fauna associada foram conduzidas na borda e interior de floresta, restinga, mangue e área urbana ...

Using camera traps to enhance community-based management of subsistence hunting in the Amazon. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract Community‐based management and monitoring of biodiversity has emerged as a cost‐effective strategy for providing credible data, informing decision‐making, and empowering local communities in resource governance and management. However, the establishment of community‐based management of subsistence hunting in the Brazilian Amazon has been ...

Differential response of fire on the community dynamics of five insect taxa in a tropical mountaintop forest archipelago

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
Fire incidence influences changes in species composition over time (temporal β‐diversity) in less vagile insect groups (ants and dung beetles). Species turnover is the primary component of temporal β‐diversity driving the interannual variation of all insect taxa examined in this study.

The comparative performance of land sharing, land sparing type interventions on place‐based human well‐being

open access: yesPeople and Nature, Volume 5, Issue 6, Page 1804-1821, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Environment‐facing interventions impact the distribution, use of and access of natural resources and have important implications for all dimensions (material, relational, quality of life) of human well‐being (HWB). Yet conventional impact metrics routinely surpass the non‐material impacts which may be particularly salient in rural contexts ...

Sleeping accommodations for researchers increase the likelihood of biodiversity inventories in protected areas 在保护区内为科研人员提供住所,可增加创建生物多样性名录的可能性

open access: yesIntegrative Conservation, Volume 2, Issue 1, Page 62-68, March 2023., 2023
Biodiversity assessments are needed to better understand biodiversity distribution and threats in parks. Our results showed that arthropod inventories are more likely if park accommodations are available for researchers. Small investments in providing accommodations may increase biodiversity assessments in parks.

Diverse anthropogenic disturbances shift Amazon forests along a structural spectrum

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and the Environment, Volume 21, Issue 1, Page 24-32, February 2023., 2023
Amazon forests are being degraded by myriad anthropogenic disturbances, altering ecosystem and climate function. We analyzed the effects of a range of land‐use and climate‐change disturbances on fine‐scale canopy structure using a large database of profiling canopy lidar collected from disturbed and mature Amazon forest plots.

AMAZONIA CAMTRAP: A data set of mammal, bird, and reptile species recorded with camera traps in the Amazon forest

open access: yesEcology, Volume 103, Issue 9, September 2022., 2022
Abstract The Amazon forest has the highest biodiversity on Earth. However, information on Amazonian vertebrate diversity is still deficient and scattered across the published, peer‐reviewed, and gray literature and in unpublished raw data. Camera traps are an effective non‐invasive method of surveying vertebrates, applicable to different scales of time

Roadkill patterns in Latin American birds and mammals

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 31, Issue 9, Page 1756-1783, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim Roads are a major threat for wildlife, degrading habitat and causing mortality via wildlife–vehicle collisions. In Latin America, the conjunction of high biodiversity and a rapidly expanding road network is reason for concern. We introduce an approach that combines species traits and habitat preferences to describe vulnerability and map ...

Podem Os Centros Ciência Viva Ser Exomuseus Sem Reserva Em Reservas Naturais?

open access: yes, 2017
Nos anos 80, o Professor Galopim de Carvalho introduziu o conceito de Exomuseu, visando a criação de “museus” ao ar livre para a divulgação e o conhecimento da geo e biodiversidade. Cerca de 40 anos depois, a controvérsia ligada à melhor forma de conservar e preservar os geomonumentos e a biodiversidade continua: Esconder ou dar a conhecer? Mais do que

AS RESERVAS NATURAIS URBANAS COMO MATERIALIZAÇÃO DA AGENDA 2030 E DA NOVA AGENDA URBANA

open access: yesRFD- Revista da Faculdade de Direito da UERJ, 2020
O processo de expansão das cidades no mundo todo tem como consequência o surgimento de diversas problemáticas, sociais, econômicas e ambientais, cuja atenção é objeto de discussões pelos Estados no âmbito das Nações Unidas, onde foram elaborados planos de ação a longo tempo e cujo objetivo é o melhoramento da qualidade de vida das pessoas, a adaptação ...
