Fires of the tropical forests and savannas are a major source particulate matter trace gases affecting atmosphere globally. A paucity quantitative information exists for these ecosystems with respect to fuel biomass, smoke emissions, fire behavior conditions release emissions. Five test fires were performed during August September 1990 in cerrado (savannalike region) central Brazil (three fires) moist forest (two eastern Amazon. This paper details released, ratios each other matter, loads...
ABSTRACT Air and soil temperatures were measured during dry season heading fires in three different physiognomic forms of native vegetation common Central Brazil: cerrado sensu stricto (dense scrub shrubs trees), campo (open scrub), sujo grassland with scattered shrubs). The was protected from fire for 15 y some areas, had been burned once every two years, each year other areas. type-k thermocouples recorded at intervals 22.5 sees. temperature measurements taken 1, 60 160 cm. Maximum air...
The effects of Brazil´s political crisis on biodiversity conservation are likely to be global. Brazil is not only the World´s most biodiverse nation, it responsible for greater part Amazon forest, which regulates climate and provides rain much southern South America. was a World leader in satellite monitoring land-use change, in-situ monitoring, reduction tropical-forest deforestation, protection indigenous lands, model other developing nations. Coordinated public responses will necessary...
The group of like-minded megadiverse countries (LMMCs), which harbours a wealth biological and cultural diversity, adopted Carta in 2016 to accelerate progress towards achieving Aichi Biodiversity Target 11. This paper presents the made over last two years an analysis LMMCs' national priority actions; approved Global Environment Facility, GEF-5 GEF-6 protected area-related biodiversity projects; relevant targets, goals, actions from National Strategies Action Plans (NBSAPs). Through their...
Abstract The Red List Index (RLI) measures change in the aggregate extinction risk of species. It is a key indicator for tracking progress toward nine Aichi and many proposed post‐2020 Global Biodiversity Framework Targets. Here, we consider two formulations RLI used reporting biodiversity trends at national scales. Disaggregated global RLIs measure changing contributions to are currently based on five taxonomic groups, while groups assessed multiple times country. For 74% nations,...
This paper reviews the current status of Aichi Biodiversity Target 11 at global level.Although there remain gaps in coverage ecological regions and areas important for biodiversity ecosystem services, 10 per cent coastal marine under national jurisdiction has already been surpassed.The full implementation agreed priority actions other commitments, including those National Strategies Action Plans, will expand ocean beyond cent, result more than 17 terrestrial inland waters.These commitments...
Abstract The Global Strategy for Plant Conservation (GSPC) with its 16 outcome-orientated targets aimed at achieving a series of measurable goals was adopted by the Conference Parties to Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) sixth meeting (COP-6) in 2002. In 2010, COP-10, these were updated, taking into account progress time. To date, number countries have developed national responses contribute GSPC, including several mega-diverse and other plant rich regions. Additionally, global...

The spatial distribution of votes for the 2022’s presidential election in Brazil overlaid with range Brazilian biomes indicated a political division within these ecoregions. A high number supporters to far-right concentrated southern Amazon, while concentration center-left wing was observed most pristine region Amazon and also Caatinga biome. In Legal there strong positive relation between proportion per municipality former president Jair Bolsonaro total forest loss accumulated last 36 years...
Global health catastrophes have complex origins, often rooted in social disruption, poverty, conflict, and environmental collapse. Avoiding them will require a new integrative analysis of the links between disease, armed degradation within socioecological vulnerability human security context. Exploring these connections was aim Catastrophe: Linking Armed Conflict, Harm to Ecosystems, Public Health, an expert workshop held May 4–6, 2016, at Concordia University Montreal, QC, Canada.
