Dry–Hot Compound Events Driving the 2024 Pantanal Wildfires

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Extreme wildfires in the Pantanal in 2024 were driven by a cascade of heatwaves, rainfall deficits and the absence of the annual flood pulse. These conditions dried soils and rivers, enhanced fuel accumulation and enabled early and intense fire outbreaks.

Sunshine Duration in Brazil From Meteosat (1983–2020): Climatology, Variability and Long‐Term Trends

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Using nearly four decades of Meteosat satellite data (1983–2020), this study presents a country‐wide climatology of sunshine duration (SDU) in Brazil. The results reveal marked regional contrasts, dominant modes of variability, and significant long‐term trends, providing new information on the most relevant meteorological systems that influence SDU and

Spatially Distributed Evaluation of ESA CCI Soil Moisture Products in a Northern Boreal Forest Environment

Geosciences, 2018
Several previous studies have discussed the challenges in remotely sensed soil moisture retrievals over northern boreal environments. However, very few studies have focused solely on an evaluation of these products specifically over these areas.

Projected Intensification of Hydroclimatic Extremes in Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, Under CMIP6 Scenarios

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract presents observed (1963–2023) and projected changes in hydroclimatic extremes in Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. It integrates dry‐spell duration (CDD) and extreme precipitation (R95pTOT) using CMIP6 multimodel ensembles under SSP1‐2.6, SSP2‐4.5, and SSP5‐8.5.

Physical and organoleptic characteristics of Limmu coffee landraces, southwestern Ethiopia

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Coffee (Coffea arabica L.) is one of the world's most valuable agricultural commodities, with Ethiopia recognized for producing high‐quality Arabica coffee. Limmu landrace coffees are prized for their distinctive flavor profiles; however, systematic evaluation of their raw and cup quality traits remains limited.

Evaluation of antifungal and antimycotoxigenic activity of selected natural antioxidants against Fusarium culmorum: in vitro and in planta assays

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Fusarium culmorum causes Fusarium head blight (FHB) in cereals, leading to significant yield losses and contamination with type B trichothecene mycotoxins such as deoxynivalenol (DON) and its acetylated derivatives 3‐ADON and 15‐ADON.

CO2 Fluxes and Soil Responses to Straw and Herbicide in Peanut

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Peanut cultivation plays an important agronomic role in Brazil, especially in rotation with sugarcane, promoting biological nitrogen fixation and improving soil quality. This study aimed to test the hypothesis that the combined use of sugarcane mulch, peanut cultivation, and herbicide application would affect soil CO₂ fluxes, soil chemical ...

Impacts of reindeer grazing on phosphorus sorption and nutrient availability in a tundra site

Oikos, EarlyView.
Reindeer Rangifer tarandus, a large circumpolar herbivore, can influence whether nitrogen (N) or phosphorus (P) is the primary limiting nutrient in tundra plant communities. Specifically, findings from a site in northern Scandinavia suggest that under conditions where reindeer grazing stimulates inorganic N availability, grazing may drive ecosystems ...
