Analysis of biological and meteorological controls of evapotranspiration in pristine forests and a pasture site in Amazonia.
This work studied the behavior and seasonality of evapotranspiration influenced by biotic and abiotic factors through analysis of diurnal variation of aerodynamic resistance (ra), stomatal resistance (rs) and decoupling factor (Ω). This index was proposed by Jarvis and McNaughton (1986) as an indic...

Large emissions from floodplain trees close the Amazon methane budget.
Wetlands are the largest global source of atmospheric methane (CH4) 1 , a potent greenhouse gas. However, methane emission inventories from the Amazon floodplain2,3 , the largest natural geographic source of CH4 in the tropics, consistently underestimate the atmospheric burden of CH4 determined via ...

Natural disaster risk in municipal solid waste disposal sites using GIS: a case study in São Paulo state, Brazil.
Natural disasters and finding suitable areas to dispose of municipal solid waste (MSW) are two major global challenges, both of which have several influences in the water resources and are related to climatic change, especially in developing countries like Brazil. Currently the risk of natural disas...

Modeling environmental susceptibility of municipal solid waste disposal sites: a case study in São Paulo state, Brazil.
The large excess of solid waste generated in cities is a result of population growth and economic development. Properly managing this municipal solid waste (MSW) is a challenge, mainly in underdeveloped and developing countries where financial concerns are an added problem. From the environmental po...

Climatology and modeling of ionospheric scintillations and irregularity zonal drifts at the equatorial anomaly crest region.
In this study the climatology of ionospheric scintillations and the zonal drift velocities of scintillationproducing irregularities are depicted for a station located under the southern crest of the equatorial ionization anomaly. Then, the α−µ ionospheric fading model is used for the firstand se...

Modeling the radiative effects of biomass burning aerosols on carbon fluxes in the Amazon region.
Every year, a dense smoke haze covers a large portion of South America originating from fires in the Amazon Basin and central parts of Brazil during the dry biomass burning season between August and October. Over a large portion of South America, the average aerosol optical depth at 550 nm exceeds 1...

The efficiency of combined coagulant and ballast to remove harmful cyanobacterial blooms in a tropical shallow system.
We tested the hypothesis that a combination of coagulant and ballast could be efficient for removal of positively buoyant harmful cyanobacteria in shallow tropical waterbodies, and will not promote the release of cyanotoxins. This laboratory study examined the efficacy of coagulants [polyaluminium c...

Production of energy and biofertilizer from cattle wastewater in farms with intensive cattle breeding.
This study evaluates the treatment efficacy and biogas yield of an integrated system composed of a plug-flow biodigester (with sludge recirculation) followed by polishing in a stabilization pond. The system was operated in real scale for 12 months at ambient temperature and under continuous flow. Th...
