Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 35, Issue 10, October 2021., 2021 Abstract The Pantanal region of Brazil is the largest seasonally flooded tropical grassland and, according to local chamber measurements, a substantial CH4 source. CH4 emissions from wetlands have recently become of heightened interest because global atmospheric 13CH4 data indicate they may contribute to the resumption of atmospheric CH4 growth since ...

Contribution of Recycling of Municipal Solid Waste to the Social Inclusion in Brazil
Journal of Waste Management, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 This paper proposes the selective collection and recycling as alternative ways to promote the social inclusion in Brazil and help the country to eradicate extreme poverty and misery and achieve the first of the Millennium Development Goals (MDG1) of the UN. This work is based on the data from a Brazilian metropolitan city of Campinas and is extended to

Applied and Environmental Soil Science, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011 In most Brazilian cities sewage sludge is dumped into sanitary landfills, even though its use in forest plantations as a fertilizer and soil conditioner might be an interesting option. Sewage sludge applications might reduce the amounts of mineral fertilizers needed to sustain the productivity on infertile tropical soils. However, sewage sludge must be

The Global Blue Bond Market: Governance Challenges and Sustainable Development Goals Disclosure
Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Blue bonds are increasingly used to close conservation financing gaps, yet their effectiveness depends on governance that links capital to credible outcomes. This study provides the first market‐wide characterization of all 139 live blue bonds outstanding as of November 2025, representing over USD 30 billion in aggregate financing.

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 4, 30 March 2026.This study applies stochastic rainfall models combining Markov Chains with gamma and mixed exponential distributions to a semi‐arid climate in Northeast Brazil. Model structures were evaluated using Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), with maximum likelihood (MLM) for parameter estimation and cumulative distribution functions (CDFs) for validation ...

Critical Slowing Down Reveals Hydrologic Resilience Loss Across Amazon Sub‐Basins
Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract The Amazon's hydroclimate exhibits basin‐scale early‐warning signals of critical slowing down (CSD), a statistical signature of declining resilience as systems approach critical transitions. We apply a multi‐metric framework to precipitation, evapotranspiration, Soil moisture (SM), and extreme streamflows, tracking rolling variance, lag‐1 ...

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 2, February 2026.Graphical abstract summarizing the modelling experiments used to quantify streamflow elasticity to changes and temporal redistribution of precipitation across South America, highlighting stronger effects of seasonal redistribution and larger responses in humid climates. ABSTRACT This study examines the sensitivity of mean, high and low streamflows (i.e.

Population Ecology, Volume 68, Issue 1, January 2026.We investigate the seasonal dynamics of two freshwater snails, Biomphalaria straminea and Melanoides tuberculata, in artificial reservoirs of the Brazilian semiarid region. Despite regulated hydrology, B. straminea exhibited strong seasonal fluctuations associated with dry periods, while M. tuberculata maintained stable populations throughout the year,
