Evaluation of geochemical data by two different XRF spectrometers in sediments from the Santiaguillo Basin (state of Durango, Mexico)

open access: yesGeofísica Internacional, 2017
La espectrometría de Fluorescencia de Rayos-X (FRX) es uno de los métodos más usados para medir datos geoquímicos y aplica técnicas tanto destructivas como no destructivas en la preparación de muestras.

Spatial distribution of organic matter in the surface sediments of Ubatuba Bay (Southeastern - Brazil)

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2003
Analyses of organic matter content, organic carbon, nitrogen, sulfur and granulometric variables were performed on 101 surface sediment samples from Ubatuba Bay in order to investigate the spatial distribution of organic matter, its origin and the ...

Structured machine learning modeling to support conservation of deep‐sea benthic biodiversity

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Biodiversity monitoring programs need to deliver accurate, timely, and actionable predictions. To establish a predictive monitoring program for deep‐sea benthos of the Santos Basin, Brazil, we developed a two‐stage structured model that allowed comparison of biodiversity predictions obtained from environmental simulations (2M‐Sim).

The influence of hydrological seasonality and land use and cover on the relationship between dissolved organic carbon and carbon dioxide along a karst‐draining large tropical river

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 10, Page 2858-2871, October 2025.
Abstract The partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) in rivers is influenced by carbonate weathering, soil CO2, photosynthesis, and the mineralization of dissolved organic carbon (DOC). In tropical regions, elevated temperatures intensify these processes. However, their seasonal dynamics remain poorly understood in large karst‐draining rivers.

Incorporating cyclone risk in the design of marine protected and conserved areas as an ecosystem‐based adaptation approach

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 4, August 2025.
Abstract Marine protected and conserved areas (MPCAs) are promoted as an ecosystem‐based adaptation (EbA) approach to increase community and ecosystem resilience to climate change. However, traditional approaches to MPCA design typically do not consider climate risk or habitat condition under a climate threat.

Monitoring mosaic biotopes in a marine conservation zone by autonomous underwater vehicle

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 33, Issue 5, Page 1174-1186, October 2019., 2019
Abstract The number of marine protected areas (MPAs) has increased dramatically in the last decade and poses a major logistic challenge for conservation practitioners in terms of spatial extent and the multiplicity of habitats and biotopes that now require assessment. Photographic assessment by autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) enables the consistent

Características físicas de sedimentos e solos de dois lagos de várzea na Amazônia Central [PDF]

open access: yesActa Amazonica, 1999
O regime hidrológico de nível de água baixo e alto torna as várzeas suscetíveis a alterações ecológicas, tanto nos solos quanto nos lagos. No período de nível de água alto, as várzeas são “fertilizadas” pelo sedimento cm suspensão que é depositado ...

Carbon dynamics in high‐Andean tropical cushion peatlands: A review of geographic patterns and potential drivers

open access: yesEcological Monographs, Volume 94, Issue 3, August 2024.
Abstract Peatlands store large amounts of carbon (C), a function potentially threatened by climate change. Peatlands composed of vascular cushion plants are widespread in the northern and central high Andes (páramo, wet and dry puna), but their C dynamics are hardly known.

Rainfall and Hydrograph Styles in Ephemeral Streams of the Drylands of Patagonia (South America–Argentina)

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 60, Issue 8, August 2024.
Abstract Ephemeral streams in dry environments can convey high intensity sediment‐laden flash floods. The study of these events is quite difficult due to remote locations with limited accessibility, unexpected events, rough weather conditions and safety concerns.
