Influence of deforestation, logging, and fire on malaria in the Brazilian Amazon. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Malaria is a significant public health threat in the Brazilian Amazon. Previous research has shown that deforestation creates breeding sites for the main malaria vector in Brazil, Anopheles darlingi, but the influence of selective logging, forest fires ...

Does selective logging affect litter deposition rates in central Brazilian Amazonia?
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2022 Selective logging is one of the main human activities that are drastically modifying tropical forests around the world. Reduced-impact logging emerged as a rational model of timber harvesting that reduces the impacts on the ecosystems and contributes to ...

Optimal parallel selection has complexity O(Log Log N)
Journal of Computer and System Sciences, 1989 It is shown that in the deterministic comparison model for parallel computation, \(p=n\) processors can select the k-th smallest item from a set of n numbers in O(log log n) parallel time. With this result all comprison tasks (selection, merging, sorting) now have upper and lower bounds of the same order in both random and deterministic models.
