Abstract Although marine plastic pollution has been the focus of several studies, there are still many gaps in our understanding concentrations, characteristics and impacts plastics oceans. This study aimed to quantify characterize debris oceanic surface waters Antarctic Peninsula. Sampling was done through trawls, mean concentration estimated at 1,794 items.km −2 with an average weight 27.8 g.km . No statistical difference found between amount mesoplastics (46%) microplastics (54%). We hard...
Pinus plantations create strong ecological legacies that persist after their removal. We evaluated the effectiveness of pine litter removal (manually or through controlled burns) and hay application for restoration South Brazilian coastal grasslands degraded by plantations. installed experiment 1 year cutting trees sampled vegetation 3 months, year, 2 years initiating experiment. used generalized linear mixed model to assess treatment effects on plant cover, richness, reestablishment....
Objetivo: analisar a importância do pré-natal na prevenção de doenças congênitas e promoção da saúde materno-infantil. Metodologia: foram aplicadas as metodologias revisão literatura integrativa, utilizando os seguintes descritores: cuidado pré-natal, anormalidades congênitas, qualidade, vulnerabilidade em transmissão vertical, com recorte temporal 2022 2024. Resultados: o estudo evidenciou que um acompanhamento qualidade é essencial para reduzir taxa mortalidade perinatal complicações...
Abstract Ecological niche models (ENMs) and species distribution (SDMs) have been widely applied to various studies relevant biogeography, conservation biology, ecology. These modelling techniques seek develop spatial maps for projecting, among others past, current, future distributions. Born in the field of terrestrial ecology, only recent years these marine environmental issues, especially improve forecasting occurrences capturing fishery resources. This study aimed present through...
Abstract Sustainable fisheries' managers increasingly seek to implement measures that reduce the mortality of threatened species while maintaining or increasing catch target species. Our study proposed a simple management option for optimizing fishing over daily and seasonal scales maximize success protecting non-target in pelagic longline fisheries. We used Bayesian beta mixed regression models describe effects setting times seasonality on catches fishery southwest South Atlantic Ocean...
Abstract Long‐term changes in the abundance of fisheries resources from Patos Lagoon estuary and adjacent coastal waters southern Brazil have been observed. Despite this understanding, it is well known that perception pristine state environment susceptible to inter‐generational changes, commonly as shifting baseline syndrome (SBS). An useful approach reconstruction scenarios lack data, often occurs small‐scale fisheries, local ecological knowledge (LEK). Temporal 81 fishers with 1–63 years...
Crane flies are the most diverse group within Diptera, but they rarely studied in coastal ecosystems. Considering scarcity of information on biology and ecology this Neotropics, sparse literature available for taxonomic identification, we developed a descriptive checklist that incorporates morphology DNA barcoding. We also created generic identification key crane southern Brazilian salt marshes. sampled continuously at three areas along Patos Lagoon marshes over one year. A total 14...
Abstract Blackfin tuna Thunnus atlanticus often inhabits warm waters of the western Atlantic Ocean from 40°N (Cape Cod, USA) to 22°S (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil). We recorded first catches species in southern Brazil (34°S) and described its new distribution fishing grounds. Since 2007, annual per trip frequency blackfin landings increased for three oceanic fleets Southern Brazil. The spatial higher center gravity records moved poleward. Sea surface temperature anomalies region warmed 1960 2019,...
Abstract Abnormal embryonic development may result from mutations caused by genetics, environmental conditions or viruses. This study reports cases of cyclopia and a mouth malformation in two blue shark Prionace glauca collected off southern Brazil (South-western Atlantic). Such malformations are likely to reduce the chances survival embryos neonates.
Abstract The blue crab Callinectes sapidus is an important ecological and commercial species. It plays a fundamental role in the structure function of coastal benthic food webs, with global catches ~74,357 tons. This most exploited portunid species Brazil. However, few studies about ecology population dynamics C . have been published. study aimed to analyse preferred areas for spatial distribution juveniles moulting individuals C. shallow Patos Lagoon estuary adjacent marine reproductive...
Otoliths are acellular apposition structures composed of approximately 90% calcium carbonate and other inorganic salts, which develop over a protein matrix located in the inner ear bony fishes playing an essential role senses balance hearing. These grow throughout fish’s lifetime. Owing to their species-specific shape, otoliths important tool for identification fish species diet predators when collected from stomachs and, due low water content, helpful archaeological, paleontological...
Hay transfer is a promising method to restore temperate and subtropical grasslands, but its efficiency may depend on the harvesting timing amount of hay used. We evaluated effects harvest date (mid‐spring/November, early summer/December, mid‐summer/February) quantity (500 1000 g/m 2 ) vegetation cover, species richness, composition in an experimental study southern Brazil for period years. undried from well‐conserved reference area onto former grassland site degraded by pine plantations....
