Neogene sharks and rays from the Brazilian ‘Blue Amazon’
The lower Miocene Pirabas Formation in the North of Brazil was deposited under influence of the proto-Amazon River and is characterized by large changes in the ecological niches from the early Miocene onwards. To evaluate these ecological changes, the elasmobranch fauna of the fully marine, carbonat...

Croton blanchetianus modulates its morphophysiological responses to tolerate drought in a tropical dry forest.
An understanding of variations in morphophysiological leaf traits of plant models in dry tropical forests is essential for quantifying C fluxes from forest ecosystems in response to climate changes. The present study evaluated the influences of seasonal rainfall and different light conditions on the...

Vulnerability of agricultural production in the brazilian semi-arid: an empirical approach including risk.
Agricultural production risk is getting increasing attention in the science and the policy domain due to its strong connection with food security and its potential to trigger systemic risks. Particularly in semi-arid regions, weather and environmental conditions can seriously affect agricultural pro...

An integrated framework to analyze local decision making and adaptation to sea level rise in coastal regions in Selsey (UK), Broward County (USA), and Santos (Brazil)
One of the clear signals of the ongoing climate change is sea level rise (SLR). Normal oceanic tides superimposed on a rising sea level and coastal flooding will affect many coastal communities. An international collaboration among Brazil, the United Kingdom, and the United States was designed to ev...

Kinetic energy generation in heat engines and heat pumps: the relationship between surface pressure, temperature and circulation cell size.
The pattern and size of the Earths atmospheric circulation cells determine regional climates and challenge theorists. Here the authors present a theoretical framework that relates the size of meridional cells to the kinetic energy generation within them. Circulation cells are considered as heat engi...

Quantifying the global atmospheric power budget.
The power of atmospheric circulation is a key measure of the Earths climate system. The mismatch between predictions and observations under a warming climate calls for a reassessment of how atmospheric power W is defined, estimated and constrained. Here we review published formulations for W and sho...

The equations of motion for moist atmospheric air.
How phase transitions affect the motion of moist atmospheric air remains controversial. In the early 2000s two distinct differential equations of motion were proposed. Besides their contrasting formulations for the acceleration of condensate, the equations differ concerning the presence/absence of a...
