The Franciscana (Pontoporia blainvillei) in the Northern Limit of the FMA II: Strandings and Habitat Use in Ilha Grande Bay

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The presence of the franciscana (Pontoporia blainvillei) at the northern limit of the FMA II was investigated using a range of methods, including monitoring of strandings, boat surveys, and passive acoustic monitoring (PAM). Franciscana strandings were recorded within the distributional gap between Macaé (22°55′ S) and Ilha Grande (23°09′ S ...

Blubber Cellular Integrity Through Decomposition and Its Implication for Histological Applications: A Study of Stranded Stock A Humpback Whales (Megaptera novaeangliae)

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Marine mammal strandings can provide unique and valuable insights into individual and population health, ranging from infectious diseases to anthropogenic threats. However, the level of decomposition of carcasses can interfere with the assessment of important indicators, such as an individual's nutritional status.

Weather Patterns Associated With Coastal Disasters in Santa Catarina, Southern Brazil

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 8, 30 June 2026.
The study identified weather patterns (WPs) associated with coastal disasters between 1998 and 2020 along the Santa Catarina coast, Brazil. Using atmospheric and oceanographic data combined with official disaster records, five WPs were defined, mainly associated with cyclonic and anticyclonic systems linked to extreme wave events.

Impacts of Deforestation‐Driven Rainfall Reductions on Amazonia Forest Stability

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The stability of Amazonian vegetation is strongly influenced by land–atmosphere feedbacks. It has been hypothesized that deforestation‐induced precipitation decline may lead to widespread forest decline across the entire basin. Using a moisture‐tracking model, we quantify how deforestation across South America alters downwind rainfall and ...
