Vast, overlooked peat, and organic soils in Brazil's Cerrado: carbon storage, dynamics, and stability

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Tropical peatlands are critical for climate mitigation due to their dual role as major carbon sinks and methane sources. In rainforests, high and stable rainfall supports peat accumulation in tropical climates. However, groundwater‐fed peatlands in seasonally dry tropical ecosystems remain poorly understood, despite their potential importance ...

The Role of Gene Flow in the Diversification of the Monkey Treefrog Complex Across the South American Dry Diagonal

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding Neotropical megadiversity remains challenging due to fundamental taxonomic issues, including identifying and describing cryptic species and their distribution, and the limited knowledge of key factors driving biological diversification. Such challenges are especially prominent in diverse clades with high levels of cryptic species,

The influence of the forest corridors to the north of the Andes on the diversification of the bright‐rumped Attila, Attila spadiceus (Passeriformes, Tyrannidae), during the climatic oscillations of the middle Pleistocene

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
This study aims to enhance our understanding of the temporal and spatial processes scales governing the evolutionary diversification of Neotropical birds with Trans‐ and Cis‐Andean populations of the species Attila spadiceus from South and Central ...

La Espiritualidad: Transmitting Peruvian Culturo‐Spiritual Elements into Occidental Systemic Spaces

open access: yesAustralian and New Zealand Journal of Family Therapy, Volume 47, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper is a decolonising, Indigenous qualitative inquiry that integrates elements of critical autoethnography, narrative methods and conceptual analysis to explore how Peruvian Andean cosmology can inform contemporary systems thinking and family therapy practice.

Multi-scale comparisons of tree composition in Amazonian terra firme forests [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2009
We explored the floristic composition of terra firme forests across Amazonia using 55 plots. Firstly, we examined the floristic patterns using both genus- and species-level data and found that the species-level analysis more clearly distinguishes among ...

Ecological niche modelling for predicting the risk of cutaneous leishmaniasis in the Neotropical moist forest biome.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2019
A major challenge of eco-epidemiology is to determine which factors promote the transmission of infectious diseases and to establish risk maps that can be used by public health authorities.

Exiled From Their Own Lands: Indigenist Policies, Oil, and Colonial Plunder in 20th Century Venezuela

open access: yesThe Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology, Volume 31, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This article examines the historical displacement of Indigenous peoples in Venezuela, focusing on the links between indigenist policies and the exploitation of natural resources, particularly oil, throughout the 20th century. Using a combined historical and ethnographic approach, it demonstrates how the formation of the Venezuelan nation‐state

High‐Resolution Digital Terrain Model and Land‐Surface Parameters of São Sebastião and Ilhabela, Southeastern Brazil

open access: yesGeoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 2, April 2026.
The first openly accessible 2 m‐resolution lidar‐based DTM and an extensive set of land‐surface parameters (LSPs) for the region of São Sebastião and Ilhabela, southeastern Brazil, reveal geomorphological features previously indiscernible, including past landslide deposits, drainage captures and structural lineaments.

Reassessing Global Atmospheric Flux of Dissolved Inorganic Phosphorus With Machine Learning and Earth System Model Outputs

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Atmospheric deposition of dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP) is crucial to nutrient cycling but remains poorly constrained in chemical transport models (CTMs). Large uncertainties in phosphorus emissions and aerosol dissolution processes challenge the reliable estimates of DIP fluxes.
