Sidelining Mitigation: Climate Delay Discourses Among Municipal Legislators in Southeastern Brazil

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, Volume 36, Issue 3, Page 685-700, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how municipal legislators frame climate mitigation and how these framings shift responsibility, narrow the perceived scope of municipal authority, and reduce the urgency or feasibility of local action. We analyzed 31 interviews with city councilors serving on Permanent Environmental Committees across municipalities in ...

Unusual occurrence of Cochlichnus in aeolian sandstones: evidence for a stiletto fly larval origin

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 12, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Abstract Cochlichnus anguineus is an ichnotaxon recognized for its distinctive regular wavy morphology. It is a characteristic trace fossil typically associated with aquatic and marginal aquatic environments. However, in this study we examine its unusual occurrence in the aeolian sandstones of the Botucatu Formation (Lower Cretaceous, Paraná Basin ...

A multi‐network approach to assess how physical templates shape stream fish ecological strategies

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 2, April–June 2026.
This multi‐network framework identifies a continuous topological gradient of fish ecological strategies—comprising Dispersal Gateways, Integrated Connectors, and Mass Effect Dominated species—within the dendritic river template. The functional role of stream reaches is scale‐sensitive, particularly at headwater extremes where sites operate as critical ...

Long‐Term Effects of Land Use and Cover Change and Dam Rupture on Ichthyofauna in a Neotropical Stream

open access: yesInternational Review of Hydrobiology, Volume 110, Issue 1, Page 5-12, June 2025.
ABSTRACT This study evaluates land use and land cover (LULC) changes and their impacts on the fish community of a neotropical stream in the Sorocaba River basin, Brazil, from 2006 to 2023. The watershed experienced landscape changes over time, categorized into four periods: rural interventions, urban interventions, restorative interventions, and post ...
