Participatory pathways to the Sustainable Development Goals: inviting divergent perspectives through a cross-scale systems approach.
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) include social and ecological goals for humanity. Navigating towards reaching the goals requires the systematic inclusion of perspectives from a diversity of voices. Yet, the development of global sustainability pathways often lacks perspective...

Impacts of climate change on the potential distribution of epiphytic cacti in the Caatinga biome, Brazil.
The Caatinga biome is the largest dry tropical forest region in South America as well as one of the most vulnerable regions in the world to the climate changes forecast for this century. Climate forecasts for the biome include increased air temperature, reduced rainfall and aridization. This biome d...

Impact of land tenure on deforestation control and forest restoration in Brazilian Amazonia.
This study examines how land tenure constrains Brazils ability to meet its deforestation control and forest restoration goals in its Amazonia biome. Our findings are based on an updated assessment of land tenure and land use in the region. Between 2019 and 2021, 44% of deforestation in Amazonia occu...

Comparação entre os modelos digitais de terreno gerados por radar em banda P e LiDAR na Amazônia, um estudo de caso no Amapá (Brasil).
The Digital Terrain Model (DTM) is an important product used in geosciences, but its extraction in dense forest areas is still a challenge. One of the major difficulties in extracting a DTM via remote sensors is in dense forest areas, as the generated information becomes degraded due to the fact tha...

Using simulated GEDI waveforms to evaluate the effects of beam sensitivity and terrain slope on GEDI L2A relative height metrics over the Brazilian Amazon Forest.
The vertical structure of forests provides important parameters for estimating aboveground biomass (AGB) and it can be measured by lidar sensors. The Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) full-waveform lidar sensor collects data systematically over the Earths surface from the International ...

Genetic viability and habitat suitability of the critically endangered southern muriqui (Brachyteles arachnoides) in the Atlantic Forest’s fragmented landscapes under land use and climate change scenarios.
The joint effects of climate change and landscape fragmentation to the genetic viability of isolated populations has barely been addressed for the Atlantic Forest fauna. Therefore, this work explored the potential habitat suitability for the southern muriqui (Brachyteles arachnoides), by modeling cl...

Current policies are insufficient to protect or restore Brazil’s cost-effective conservation priority zones.
In Brazil, conservation priority zones, in spite of their key role in preserving natural vegetation and its environmental resources are frequently located outside the country's public network of protected areas (PAs). Here we present the first study on land-use impacts inside Brazil's unprotected (i...

Upward leaders initiated from instrumented lightning rods during the Approach of a downward leader in a cloud-to-ground flash.
In this paper we analyze electric-field and current measurements of upward leaders induced by a downward negative lightning flash that struck a residential building. The attachment process was recorded by two high-speed cameras running at 37,800 and 70,000 images per second and the current measured...

Accurate species distribution models: minimum required number of specimen records in the Caatinga biome.
Species distribution models (SDMs) are one of the most widely used tools to predict areas with potential for occurrence of native, invasive and endangered species, based on current and future environmenal and climate conditions. Despite their global use, evaluating the accuracy of SDMs based only on...

Climate projections of precipitation and temperature in cities from ABC Paulista, in the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo-Brazil.
Cities are increasingly vulnerable to climate change's impacts and poorly adapted to extreme variability. This study aimed to evaluate climate projections of air temperature and precipitation in seven cities in the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo that correspond to the Greater ABC Paulista. We use...

Idealized hydrodynamical numerical model dataset with no-river runoff at the western tropical North Atlantic.
The western tropical North Atlantic (WTNA) is a very complex region, with the influence of intense western boundary currents in connection with equatorial zonal currents, important atmospheric forcings (e.g Intertropical Convergence Zone), mesoscale activities (e.g NBC rings), and the worlds largest...
