Distribuição espacial de bromélias na restinga de jurubatiba, Macaé, RJ Spatial distribution of bromeliads at "restinga" of Jurubatiba, Macaé, RJ

Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2000
Nas restingas, devido aos microhábitats favoráveis, como as moitas, não ocorrerem de forma homogênea, mas em manchas, e devido à elevada taxa de reprodução vegetativa em bromélias, testa-se a hipótese de que o padrão de distribuição espacial das ...

Balancing tracks and trees: Assessing railroad impact on Brazilian biodiversity

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The Brazilian West–East Integration Railway (FIOL) aims to boost the national economy by improving commodity transport; however, it crosses three of Brazil's most biodiverse and fragile regions: the Caatinga, Cerrado and Atlantic Forest. Using digitised plant records and land‐use analyses, our study reveals significant vegetation loss within the ...

Lack of Compliance in Gillnet Fisheries Regulations Increases Risk to a Vulnerable Species

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article presents an analysis of regulatory compliance in a Brazilian gillnet fishery, based on Vessel Monitoring System (VMS) tracking data. Satellite transmissions records, interpreted as proxies for gillnet haulings events, were analyzed and classified using a neural network to assess the level of compliance of the gillnet fleet.

Reproductive behaviour of the ocean triggerfish Canthidermis sufflamen (Tetraodontiformes: Balistidae) in the shallow waters of the marine‐protected area of El Hierro Island (Canary Islands)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The abundance of Canthidermis sufflamen has increased worldwide, including around the Canary Islands, due to global ocean warming. The reproductive behaviour of this species was studied within a marine‐protected area (MPA) and its adjacent areas off the island of El Hierro (Canary Islands).

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) communities in sand bars associated with Ipomoea pes‐caprae: a promising strategy for petroleum spill bioremediation in coastal dunes

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), a class of petroleum‐derived compounds known for causing cellular damage and for their recalcitrant behavior, severely limit effective biodegradation. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) from oil‐contaminated environments can mitigate PAH‐related stress on host plants, highlighting the ...

Inferences on Frog Responses to Forest Cover Depend on Sampling Method and Reproductive Mode

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Sampling choices can bias assessments of biodiversity responses to habitat loss, compromising conservation strategies in vulnerable ecosystems such as the Brazilian Atlantic Forest. We evaluated the efficiency of three frog sampling methods (active search, plot sampling, and pitfall traps) across Atlantic Forest remnants to estimate species ...

Structure of the Wetland‐Dependent Bird Assemblages in the Pequenos Lençóis Maranhenses, in Maranhão, Brazil

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Wetland‐dependent birds play crucial ecological roles and are highly influenced by local environmental factors such as depth, salinity and microhabitat availability. Although the importance of these environments for biodiversity is already recognized, studies on the spatiotemporal dynamics of these assemblages in Maranhão remain scarce.

Characterization of the soil fertility and root system of restinga forests

Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2012
The Restinga vegetation consists of a mosaic of plant communities, which are defined by the characteristics of the substrates, resulting from the type and age of the depositional processes.
