Abstract This synthesis is framed within the scope of Brazilian Benthic Coastal Habitat Monitoring Network (ReBentos WG 4: Mangroves and Salt Marshes), focusing on papers that examine biodiversity-climate interactions as well human-induced factors including those decrease systemic resilience. The goal to assess difficulties related detection climate early warning signals from monitoring data. We also explored ways circumvent some obstacles identified. Exposure sensitivity mangrove salt marsh...
Abstract Of Brazil’s 7408 km of coastline 6786 contain mangrove forests, covering some 25,000 km2. Only one coastal state, Rio Grande do Sul, lacks coverage. Mangroves occur from the border with French Guiana, just above Equator (04°30′N) to well beyond Tropic Capricorn, reaching 28°30′S, near Laguna (Santa Catarina State). Because term may be applied various levels observation, specifying proper spacio-temporal scale is important describe system behavior. In this paper we a nested hierarchy...
Oil spills are potential threats to the integrity of highly productive coastal wetlands, such as mangrove forests. In October 1983, a area nearly 300 ha located on southeastern coast Brazil was impacted by 3.5 million liter crude oil spill released broken pipeline. order assess long-term effects pollution vegetation, we carried out GIS-based multitemporal analysis aerial photographs years 1962, 1994, 2000 and 2003. Photointerpretation, visual classification, class quantification,...
Sediment cores are an essential tool for the analysis of dynamics mangrove succession. Coring was used to correlate changes in depositional environments and lateral sedimentary facies with discrete stages forest succession at Cananéia-Iguape Coastal System southeastern Brazil. A local level successional pattern examined based on four core series T1) a sediment bank; T2) smooth cordgrass Spartina alterniflora T3) active progradation fringe dominated by Laguncularia racemosa, and; T4) mature...
