1. SOIL CHEMICAL CHANGES AND RESEMBLANCES IN A CHRONOSEQUENCE RAINFOREST-SUGARCANE-PASTURELAND IN THE ATLANTIC FOREST BIOME
ABSTRACT This study evaluated soil chemical and isotopic changes in soils of a chronosequence rainforest-sugarcane-pasture in the Atlantic Forest biome, Brazil. Soil samples were collected (0-20 cm) in areas of native Brazilian Atlantic rainforest, sugarcane plantation and pastures of Brachiaria decumbens. The soil analyses performed were: pH (water 1:2.5),

2. Impactos da mudança de vegetação local no aporte de matéria orgânica para um estuário tropical preservado (Estuário do Rio Itapicuru – BA)
Estuaries are major areas of organic matter (OM) deposition, playing an important role in the global carbon cycle. The Itapicuru's river estuary (IRE) is in the North Coast of Bahia (Brazil), in na Environmental Protected Area. Although it presents preserved conditions, some environmental changes caused by human activities can be observed. This study evaluat

3. Use of stable isotopes of carbon to detect coconut water adulteration
ABSTRACT: Industrialized coconut water may have been adulterated by adding sugar above the limit permitted by law. According to Brazilian law, industrialized coconut water can receive the maximum addition of 1 g of sugar per 100 mL of the drink. This work aimed to detect adulteration in industrialized coconut water produced in Brazil and measure the relative

4. Background and the use of isoscapes in the Brazilian context: essential tool for isotope data interpretation and natural resource management
Resumo Padrões de distribuição espacial de isótopos estáveis podem ser apresentados em mapas chamados de isoscapes e têm sido amplamente utilizados para rastrear processos biogeoquímicos em sistemas naturais e antrópicos. Isoscapes têm o potencial de melhorar a disseminação e interpretação dos padrões espaciais de isótopos estáveis, aumentar

5. Trophic ecology of citrus pests based on stable isotope analysis
ABSTRACT: Macrodactylus pumilio Burm. (Coleoptera: Scarabeidae) and Naupactus cervinus (Boh.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) are considered primary pests in citrus crops in Brazil, causing damage to plants and decreasing productivity. However, few studies investigate the ecology of these insects. In this context, the use of stable isotopes analysis (SIA) emerge

6. Paleoenvironmental Characterization of a High-Mountain Environment in the Atlantic Forest in Southeastern Brazil
ABSTRACT: Records of changes in the phytosociological structure of vegetation can be observed more clearly in soils that have more significant accumulation of organic matter, like those occurring in high-mountain environments. The aim of this study was to characterize soils formed in high-mountain environments in the Itatiaia National Park (INP), state of Ri

7. Cretaceous carbonatites of the southeastern Brazilian Platform: a review
ABSTRACT: This paper reviews general aspects of alkaline-carbonatitic rocks of Brazilian, Paraguayan and Bolivian terrains. Although 30 such occurrences are known in literature, only the major ones have been thoroughly investigated. The carbonatites are of Cretaceous age, with two well-defined Lower Cretaceous and Upper Cretaceous generation episodes. A clea

8. CORRELAÇÕES GEOQUÍMICAS ENTRE AMOSTRAS DE PETRÓLEO DA BACIA POTIGUAR E DEFINIÇÃO DE SUAS POSSÍVEIS ROCHAS GERADORAS
Eight petroleum samples from Potiguar Basin were submitted for determination of saturated biomarkers by gas chromatography (fingerprint), liquid chromatography (saturates, aromatics, resins and asphaltenes), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), nickel and vanadium by high resolution continuum source graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (H

9. Effects of sex and altitude on nutrient, and carbon and nitrogen stable isotope composition of the endangered shrub Baccharis concinna G.M. Barroso (Asteraceae)
ABSTRACT Previous ecological studies of dioecious plant species have found that female plants preferentially occur at lower altitudes where there are typically better nutritional conditions, while male plants often occur in less favorable sites. We compared the ecophysiological performance of male and female plants in three populations of the dioecious Bacch

10. Isotopic variation among Amazonian floodplain woody plants and implications for food-web research
Isotopic variation within food sources adds uncertainty to models intended to reconstruct trophic pathways. Understanding this variation is pivotal for planning sampling protocols for food-web research. This study investigates natural variation in C and N stable isotopes among plant species in two western Amazon flooded forests with contrasting watershed bio

11. Mapping Ethanol Production Sources in Brazil Through Stable Isotopes
Ethanol is a biofuel produced in Brazil through fermentation of sugarcane, requiring vast plantation areas and water availability. The present work aimed at testing isotopic markers as tools for ethanol source appointment or certification of origin. For this, oxygen and hydrogen isotopic patterns were determined in plant-water, soil-water, rainwater, and wat

12. Use of carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes to study the feeding ecology of small coastal cetacean populations in southern Brazil
Amostras de tecido de indivíduos pertencentes às populações de Sotalia guianensis (boto-cinza) e Pontoporia blainvillei (toninha) que vivem no estuário da Baía da Babitonga (26° 28′ S/48° 50′ W) e de uma segunda população de P. blainvillei da área costeira (26° 38′ S/48° 41′ W) foram coletadas entre os anos 2000 e 2006 para determinar as
