1. Macrophyte functional composition is stable across a strong environmental gradient of a Neotropical floodplain
ABSTRACT Ecological communities are compared by the similarity or distinctness of their species. Taking into account community composition at a determined site, one could expect a similar reasoning to explain differences in both taxonomic and functional composition due to environmental gradients. We aim to evaluate spatial variation in functional composition

2. Drivers of floristic variation in biogeographic transitions: insights from the ecotone between the largest biogeographic domains of South America
ABSTRACT Ecological transitions usually represent vulnerable ecosystems and high biodiversity. Investigating their drivers is important from both biogeographic and conservationist perspectives. One of these transitions is situated between the two largest biogeographic domains of South America - the Amazon and the Cerrado. We evaluated variation in tree flori

3. Variation in root morphology of epiphytic orchids along small-scale and large-scale moisture gradients
ABSTRACT Root morphology is expected to respond to environmental conditions. Two earlier studies reported predictable changes in the structure of the velamen radicum (common in monocotyledons) along rainfall gradients, which was expected from its assumed role in plant-water-relations. The present study expanded on this idea by analysing nine root traits that

4. Seasonal and longitudinal variation in fish assemblage structure along an unregulated stretch of the Middle Uruguay River
RESUMO Os padrões de diversidade e suas causas continuam sendo questões importantes, especialmente em ecossistemas que preservam condições naturais. Este é o caso da diversidade de peixes em grandes rios neotropicais. Neste contexto, investigamos padrões de diversidade de peixes ao longo de um extenso gradiente fluvial (ca. 450 km) no médio rio Urugua

6. Incidence and spatial distribution of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia by regions of economic development in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil
ABSTRACT Background: The establishment of regional development poles in the State of Pernambuco, Brazil was characterized by industrial expansion and consequent concerns about the increase in the occurrence of diseases, specifically those having long latency periods, as is the case of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia. Methods: The study included 367 patients diagn

7. Biomass and abiotic variables change in phytotelmic environment in the tank-bromeliad Nidularium longiflorum Ule in tropical forest
Resumo Objetivo Fitotelma desempenha um papel importante no crescimento das plantas e funcionamento do ecossistema, mas este microcosmo aquático natural é pouco investigado. O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar as variações sazonais (estações seca e chuvosa) e espaciais (trilha florestal e córrego) do fitotelma de Nidularium longiflorum, bromél

8. Do the Growing Conditions of Trees Influence the Wood Properties?
ABSTRACT Currently, there is a little and sparse information about how the growing conditions influence the spatial variation of wood along the stem. Thus, the aim of this study was to compile the knowledge from literature in a manuscript for better understanding to what extent the growing conditions influence the spatial variation of wood properties in Euca

9. TEMPORAL VARIATION AND SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION OF RELATIVE INDICES OF LEAF CHLOROPHYLL IN GRAPEVINE cv. CHARDONNAY
ABSTRACT Variation in the spatial distribution of leaf chlorophyll content associated with the progression of the phenological cycle of crops may occur in cultivated areas as a result of the variability of environmental conditions and of the intrinsic properties of the plants. The objective of the present study was to model the trend in variation and assess

10. Dredging impact on trace metal behavior in a polluted estuary: a discussion about sampling design
ABSTRACT Studies involving coastal sediment resuspension have shown that trace metals could be released to the water column due to changes in physical-chemical conditions. Therefore, if environmental agencies adopt screening protocols with insufficient evaluations of contaminant mobilization risks for a given area, the prediction of environmental impacts cau

11. A predictive multimetric index based on macroinvetebrates for Atlantic Forest wadeable streams assessment
Resumo: Índices Multimétricos (MMIs) são ferramentas amplamente aplicadas ao monitoramento ecológico de ecossistemas aquáticos continentais. A maior dificuldade na utilização dos MMIs em amplas escalas espaciais consiste no aumento da variabilidade ambiental associado ao aumento da escala. A covariância entre os impactos antropogênicos e o gradiente

12. Geographic variation of Moenkhausia bonita (Characiformes: Characidae) in the rio de la Plata basin, with distributional comments on M. intermedia
ABSTRACT Moenkhausia bonita occurs in numerous additional localities from the Bermejo, Paraná, Paraguay, and Uruguay river basins. Given that this finding greatly expands the distributional range of M. bonita, we carried out an intraspecific comparison, using multivariate methods for 18 morphometric and eight meristic characters taken from a comprehensive s
