Scientists have long been trying to understand why the Neotropical region holds highest diversity of birds on Earth. Recently, there has increased interest in morphological variation between and within species, how climate, topography, anthropogenic pressures may explain affect phenotypic variation. Because data are not always available for many species at local or regional scale, we limited our understanding intra- interspecies spatial Here, present ATLANTIC BIRD TRAITS, a set that includes...
Despite advances in understanding the effects of landscape structure on ecosystem services (ES), many challenges related to these complex spatial interactions remain. In particular, integration different components service provision chain (supply, demand, and flow) remains poorly understood conceptualized. Here we propose a theoretical framework further explore how flow ES can vary according (i.e. composition configuration) emphasizing role played by configuration supply, neutral areas, as...
Various approaches are available to assist stakeholders in identifying and resolving ecosystem service tradeoffs. However, existing tools fall short simulating land use configuration effects on services subsequently making these accessible users with varying levels of expertise. To address this gap, we introduce PLACES, a tool that estimates impacts multiple by incorporating landscape-level processes. Tool results provided real-time visualized support dialogue between different stakeholders....
Abstract Mortality from collision with vehicles is the most visible impact of road traffic on wildlife. due to roads (hereafter road‐kill) can affect dynamic populations many species and can, therefore, increase risk local decline or extinction. This especially true in Brazil, where plans for network upgrading expansion overlaps biodiversity hotspot areas, which are high importance global conservation. Researchers, conservationists planners face challenge define a national strategy...
Epiphytes are hyper-diverse and one of the frequently undervalued life forms in plant surveys biodiversity inventories. Atlantic Forest, most endangered ecosystems world, have high endemism radiated recently Pliocene. We aimed to (1) compile an extensive Forest data set on vascular, non-vascular plants (including hemiepiphytes), lichen epiphyte species occurrence abundance; (2) describe distribution order indicate future sampling efforts. Our work presents first with information abundance...
Abstract Mammalian carnivores are considered a key group in maintaining ecological health and can indicate potential integrity landscapes where they occur. Carnivores also hold high conservation value their habitat requirements guide management plans. The order Carnivora has 84 species from 8 families the Neotropical region: Canidae; Felidae; Mephitidae; Mustelidae; Otariidae; Phocidae; Procyonidae; Ursidae. Herein, we include published unpublished data on native terrestrial (Canidae;...
Abstract Context Animal movement through the landscape is essential to several ecological processes, assuring genetic flow, reproductive success and population dynamics. In fragmented landscapes, species change their patterns according sensitivity cover configuration. Increased habitat loss fragmentation affects resource distribution availability, compelling move more frequently anthropized matrices. Objectives Our aim was provide a new prospect for what known about animal anthropogenic...
Abstract Road widening (a.k.a. road dualling) and the presence of mitigation structures may have opposing effects on number animal‐vehicle collisions. Their influence in tropical areas is poorly quantified, we know little about how modifications structure affect fauna roadkill mitigation. We evaluated proximity to a wildlife underpass medium large mammals, using records from before after 150 km with new old underpasses. Roadkilled species were divided into three groups based mobility...
Although mining activities are required to supply human needs, the academic participation on allocation and planning of is reduced. We presented our experience in participatory review Rio Claro's (São Paulo, Brazil) master plan. In 2015, Claro City Hall triggered a multi-agent discussion about new perspectives local environmental improve life quality. Representatives economic sectors were invited for public consultations, while civil society was neglected. The represented by amendment...

Abstract Ecosystems degradation, and consequently biodiversity loss, has severe impacts on people around the world. The Intergovernmental Platform Biodiversity Ecosystem Services (IPBES) is one of international initiatives that have emerged to inform policy makers aid decisions prevent further global focusing interdependence between natural systems human culture. IPBES promotes use scenarios modelling approaches as a fundamental tool advance understanding relationships drivers change,...
The main goal of this dataset is a compilation geo-referenced road-kill data from published and unpublished road surveys. encompasses records 45 personal communications 26 studies in peer-reviewed journals, theses, reports. comprises 21,512 records, 83% which are identified to the species level (n = 450 species). This can be used identify taxa seem vulnerable traffic, analyze temporal spatial patterns at local, regional, national scales also understand effects on population persistence....
The development of heat-tolerant varieties is an important goal wheat breeding programs, requiring efficient selection methods. In the present study use recurrent was evaluated as a strategy to improve heat stress tolerance in wheat. Two cycles were performed experiments conducted research areas Universidade Federal de Vicosa, located Coimbra-MG and Vicosa-MG, 2004 2007, two growing seasons (summer winter). genetic gain existence variability show possibility successful for heat-
Abstract Roads have a myriad of negative effects on biodiversity, ultimately threatening the persistence populations. In this Perspective we call attention to an extreme example, where entire current geographic range endangered golden lion tamarin ( Leontopithecus rosalia , GLT) is bisected by major highway that being widened four lanes. We believe planned mitigation actions are not enough reduce expected increase barrier and road mortality. These impacts may lead sequence cascading could...
Abstract Urbanization is recognized as an important cause of biodiversity loss. Urban areas present reduced number bird species if compared to non-urban more pristine nearby. The goal this research help improving the diversity birds in urban by investigating why area coast Brazil sustains a small fraction that could occur region. We conducted observations during two years Serra, Brazil, resulting identification 27 visiting residential garden. Studies region have reported 275 species. used...

A interdisciplinaridade que permeia a temática das estradas agrupa especialistas de diversos campos pesquisa para discutir planejamento, impactos e mitigações derivados empreendimentos lineares no Brasil. Com atenção especial ao licenciamento concessão rodovias ferrovias, este evento agrega pesquisadores representantes outros setores pensar soluções parcerias.
Unidades de Conservação (UC) são uma estratégia usual para a conservação da biodiversidade, porém, sem gestão integrada com sociedade, não suficientes garantir ambiental. As limitações estão relacionadas falta investimentos em recursos financeiros e humanos por parte dos órgãos governamentais responsáveis.

Tree canopy is an important component in the urban environment because it improves people’s quality of life by enhancing environmental situation. In district Pinheiros Sao Paulo, mapping based on satellite images a detailed scale points out that vegetation heterogeneously distributed, thus being more concentrated patches north and south portions district, corresponding to 15% its total area. The central portion has much less should be considered main focus for improvement planning....
