Climate benefits of Amazon secondary forests—recent advances and research needs
A quarter of the deforested Amazon has regrown as secondary tropical forest and yet the climatic importance of these complex regenerating landscapes is only beginning to be recognised. Advances in satellite remote-sensing have transformed our ability to detect and...
Apresentação – Cadeia de valor: ampliando a visão sobre os atores
Apresentação oferecida pelos facilitadores do Módulo Azul sobre a análise do funcionamento de uma cadeia de valor, seus atores e etapas. O tema "Análise de Cadeias de Valor" é um dos sete módulos que compõem o Programa CapGestão, realizado pelo consórcio Eco Consult e Ipam Amazônia.

A social-ecological approach to identify and quantify biodiversity tipping points in South America’s seasonal dry ecosystems
Tropical dry forests and savannas harbour unique biodiversity and provide critical ES, yet they are under severe pressure globally. We need to improve our understanding of how and when this pressure provokes tipping points in biodiversity and the associated...

Who owns Brazilian lands?
Land tenure in many parts of Brazil remains uncertain and controversial. These problems have recently been exacerbated by changes in the legal framework regulating protected areas and the land market. A particular challenge facing attempts to improve land tenure...
Prolonged tropical forest degradation due to compounding disturbances: Implications for CO2 and H2O fluxes
Drought, fire, and windstorms can interact to degrade tropical forests and the ecosystem services they provide, but how these forests recover after catastrophic disturbance events remains relatively unknown. Here, we analyze multi‐year measurements of...
