Abstract The Brazilian Amazon has the highest concentration of indigenous peoples in world. Recently, government sent a bill to Congress regulate commercial mining lands. This work analyzes risks proposed Amazonian and their To evaluate possible impact new bill, we consider all license requests registered Brazil’s National Mining Agency that overlap lands as potential areas future. existing cover 176 000 km 2 lands, factor 3000 more than area current illegal mining. Considering only these...
The Amazon biome is under severe threat due to increasing deforestation rates and loss of biodiversity ecosystem services while sustaining a high burden neglected tropical diseases. Approximately two thirds this are located within Brazilian territory. There, socio-economic environmental landscape transformations linked the regional agrarian economy dynamics, which has developed into six techno-productive trajectories (TTs). These TTs product historical interaction between Peasant Farmer...
Abstract The Trajetorias dataset is a harmonized set of environmental, epidemiological, and poverty indicators for all municipalities the Brazilian Legal Amazon (BLA). This result scientific synthesis research initiative conducted by scientists from several natural social sciences fields, consolidating multidisciplinary into coherent integrated interdisciplinary studies Amazon. allows investigation association between Amazonian agrarian systems their impacts on environmental epidemiological...
This study investigates the main threats related to environmental degradation that affect Amazonian Indigenous Lands (ILs). Through a cluster analysis, we group ILs according set of common occur within and outside their limits. The results show most 383 are affected internally by combination different threats, namely: deforestation, forest degradation, fires, mining, croplands, pastures, roads. However, multiple relatively severe mainly located in arc deforestation Roraima state. loss...
Amazonian Indigenous Lands (ILs) are human-environment systems facing a multitude of environmental threats. Yet, the resulting vulnerability these to date unknown. We adopt theoretical framework IPCC assess Brazilian Amazon ILs for two periods (2001–2010 and 2011–2019) overall (2001–2019). Vulnerability is deemed function exposure (EX), sensitivity (SE) adaptive capacity (AC) system Sensitivity (threats within IL) in IL's buffer zones) indicators changes forest cover, economic activities,...
Agaricus bisporus, the most widely produced edible mushroom globally, faces a challenge with its short shelf life, complicating post-harvest distribution. This study aimed to produce high-quality, calcium-fortified dried Paris mushrooms enhance their value and extend life. The effects of calcium vacuum impregnation, convective drying at various temperatures, freeze-drying freezing initial stage were evaluated regarding process kinetics quality parameters. Vacuum impregnation efficiently...
Demand for agricultural exports in Brazil has stimulated the expansion of crop production and cattle raising, which caused environmental impacts. In response, developed public policies such as new Forest Code (FC) supply chain arrangements Soy Cattle Moratoriums. This paper analyzes effectiveness these policies, considering trajectories state Mato Grosso three years: 2005 (pre-moratorium before FC), 2010 (post-moratorium FC) 2017 post-new FC). Our analysis uses a detailed land use change...
Fiddler crabs (Uca spp., Decapoda: Ocypodidae) are commonly found forming large aggregations in intertidal zones, where they perform rhythmic waving displays with their greatly enlarged claws. While performing these displays, fiddler often synchronize behavior neighboring males, the only known synchronized visual courtship involving reflected light and moving body parts. Despite being one of most conspicuous aspects crab behavior, little is about mechanisms underlying synchronization male...
Animal synchrony is found in phylogenetically distant animal groups, indicating behavioral adaptations to different selective pressures and signaling modalities. A notable example of synchronous display fiddler crabs that males wave their single enlarged claw during courtship. They present species-specific signals, which are composed distinctive movement signatures. Given waving has been reported for several crab species, the pattern could influence ability a given species sufficiently...
A key component of remote-sensing image analysis is classification, which aims to categorize images into different classes using machine-learning methods. In many applications, classifiers assign class probabilities each pixel. These serve as input for post-processing techniques that aim improve the results algorithms. This paper proposes a new algorithm based on an empirical Bayes approach. We employ non-isotropic neighborhood definitions capture impact borders between land in statistical...
Abstract Mining causes intense socio-environmental impacts and threatens Indigenous peoples in Brazil, exposing them to violence, contagious diseases, mercury contamination, loss of livelihoods. Recent collaborative efforts by society achieved positive advances against mining Lands (ILs). Notably, the National Agency (ANM) has revoked thousands requests that encroached upon ILs for decades, marking a historic but underpublicized milestone. However, recent months, Congress approved series...
Synthesis science is an emergent research field for harmonizing different data, concepts, and theories to create new insights endorse novel approaches. Here we provide a brief general overview of synthesis science, emphasize the geographically biased location centers一particularly their paucity in Global South一and highlight pioneering role Center on Biodiversity Ecosystem Services (SinBiose, CNPq) concerning transdisciplinary aspirations South. Working with ecosystem service dimension...
