Background: Plant composition changes with topography and edaphic gradients that correlate soil-water nutrient availability. Data on soil water for the Amazon Basin are scarce, limiting possibility of distinguishing between influences plant composition. Aim: We tested a new proxy table depth, terrain height above nearest drainage (HAND), as predictor in trees, lianas, palms, shrubs, herbs compared HAND to conventional measures sea level (HASL) horizontal distances from (HDND). Methods:...
Abstract Rainfall, run‐off and dissolved particulate organic carbon concentrations were measured to investigate the hydrological export of out blackwater Igarapé Asu rainforest catchment over a two‐year period. Annual rainfall was above average (2442 mm) at 2976 mm in 2002 below 2054 2003. Surface dominated flow catchment, with groundwater outflow being negligible. Streamflow totals amounted 1362 780 Dissolved (DOC) similar those elsewhere Amazon Basin 1·2 mg l −1 , leading atmospheric DOC...
Abstract: Although it is well known that riparian zones can contribute strongly to between-habitat beta diversity, for most taxa not clear how far this ‘zone’ extends, and whether corresponds easily recognizable topographic features. Forty 200-m 2 plots were installed in a terra firme tropical forest detect compositional variation terrestrial herbs from the margins of small streams uplands. Plots ordinated by their dissimilarity species composition with non-metric multidimensional scaling....
Abstract Drought is a global issue that exacerbated by climate change and increasing anthropogenic water demands. The recent occurrence of drought in California provides an important opportunity to examine response across ecosystem classes (forests, shrublands, grasslands, wetlands), which essential understand how influences structure function. We quantified resistance comparing changes satellite‐derived estimates water‐use efficiency ( WUE = net primary productivity [ NPP...
Animal pollination is an important ecosystem function and service, ensuring both the integrity of natural systems human well-being. Although many knowledge shortfalls remain, some high-quality data sets on biological interactions are now available. The development adoption standards for biodiversity metadata has promoted great advances in sharing aggregation, supporting large-scale studies science-based public policies. However, these currently not suitable to fully support interaction...
The database of the Brazilian Program for Biodiversity Research (PPBio; GIVD ID SA-BR-001) includes data on environment and biological groups such as plants.It is organized by site, which usually a grid with 10 to 72 uniformly-distributed plots, has already surveyed 1,638 relevés across different ecosystems.The sampling design based RAPELD system allow integration from diverse taxa ecosystem processes.RAPELD spatially-explicit scheme monitor biodiversity in long-term ecological research...

The Brazilian agribusiness sector has been witnessing increasing modernization, caused by the extensive adoption of technologies, with increase in productivity and reduction risks In addition, use digital technologies farms recently increasing, engendering emerging fi eld agriculture.In this context, article presents a startup acceleration program, called TechStart Agro Digital, an initiative Embrapa Agricultural Informatics Venture Hub support various stakeholders agricultural innovation...
Agriculture is directly related to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) proposed by United Nations. Digital transformation in agriculture an important trend for sustainable practices and governance. In recent years, various sensors have been used collect large volumes of data that allows faster more complex analysis. This paradigm shift has led data-driven agricultural management, which aids farmers decision-making process. platforms storage, organization, management are tools companies...
Long-term-ecological-research (LTER) faces many challenges, including the difficulty of obtaining long-term funding, changes in research questions and sampling designs, keeping researchers collecting standardized data for years, impediments to interactions with local people, integrating needs decision makers "big science". These issues result a lack universally accepted guidelines as how should be done integrated among LTER sites. Here we discuss RAPELD (standardized field infrastructure...

Abstract Urbanization brings forth social challenges in emerging countries such as Brazil, encompassing food scarcity, health deterioration, air pollution, and biodiversity loss. Despite this, urban areas like the city of São Paulo still boast ample green spaces, offering opportunities for nature appreciation conservation, enhancing resilience livability. Citizen science is a collaborative endeavor between professional scientists nonprofessional scientific research that may help to...
The "Pomar Urbano" (Urban Orchard) project focuses on the collaborative monitoring of fruit-bearing plant species in urban areas throughout Brazil. collected a list 411 (Soares et al. 2023), both native and exotic varieties found This was selected from two main sources: book Brazilian Fruits Cultivated Exotics (Lorenzi 2006) series Plants for Future , which includes volumes specifically dedicated to economic value different regions Brazil, namely South (Coradin 2011), Midwest (Vieira 2016),...
Agricultural Biodiversity has been defined by the Convention on Biological Diversity as set of elements biodiversity that are relevant to agriculture and food production. These arranged into an agro-ecosystem compasses "the variability among living organisms from all sources including terrestrial, marine other aquatic ecosystems ecological complexes which they part: this includes diversity within species, between species ecosystems" (UNEP 1992). As with any field in Biology, work produces...
Biodiversity is a data-intensive science and relies on data from large number of disciplines in order to build up coherent picture the extent trajectory life earth (Bowker 2000). The ability integrate such different disciplines, geographic regions scales crucial for making better decisions towards sustainable development. As Information Standards (TDWG) community tackles standards development adoption beyond its initial emphases taxonomy species distributions, expanding impact engaging wider...
1A pesquisa da relacao entre a acao humana e o ambiente natural abrange questoes relevantes busca pelo desenvolvimento sustentavel aos efeitos das mudancas ambientais globais. Um dos temas que esta no centro do debate investigacao de transformacoes em ecossistemas naturais, com destaque para extensa area floresta tropical Amazonia. Essas alteracoes ocorrem diferentes maneiras, uma vez nao ha abordagem unica ou linear possa explicar interacao sociedade ambiente. O dialogo pesquisadores...

Abstract This paper presents two key data sets derived from the Pomar Urbano project. The first set is a comprehensive catalog of edible fruit-bearing plant species, native or introduced in Brazil. second set, sourced iNaturalist platform, tracks distribution and monitoring these plants within urban landscapes across study encompasses all 27 Brazilian state capitals, focusing on ten cities that contributed most observations as August 2023. research emphasizes significance citizen science...
