Forest fires have exhibited an escalating trend in both frequency and intensity globally, with major and catastrophic events causing significant damage to forest resources, human lives, and property. Timely and accurate ...

As abelhas africanas (Apis mellifera scutellata) foram trazidas para o Brasil na década de 1950 e, por acidente, cruzaram-se com outras subespécies de abelhas melíferas européias introduzidas no século XIX. Isso pro...

The relevance of the research is explained by the contradiction between the availability of forest resources, the demand for timber materials, and the low economic efficiency of their use, conservation, and reproduction....

Background: Extreme heat poses growing public health challenges, particularly in rapidly urbanizing regions. Assessing heat vulnerability at the county level is crucial for guiding adaptation strategies. Methods: A count...

This study presents a comparative analysis of the effectiveness of various regression models for estimating forest stand phytomass stocks in spruce forests developed on Al-Fe-humic podzols at the northern tree line in th...

As ações do projeto consistiram no reconhecimento da comunidade, realizando-se entrevistas, seguidas de um levantamento da demanda por espécies florestais e frutíferas, aquisição, transporte e distribuição das mu...

ABSTRACT We studied the home range and habitat use of paca (Cuniculus paca) in a rural agricultural community in the Alto Beni region, in La Paz department, Bolivia, where game meat is the main source of protein for a la...

Background: Forests are used for multiple purposes worldwide, which often include timber harvest, firewood extraction and livestock raising. An excessive pressure on multipurpose systems may decrease soil cover, promotin...

Neste estudo é relatado o uso de espécies vegetais por onze famílias que vivem na área rural do município de Manacapuru, no Amazonas. Foi feita uma abordagem participativa durante as entrevistas, utilizando um formu...

Abstract The complex interactions between snow cover and forests have implications for ecosystems, water resources and the Earth's climate. However, the geographic distribution of where snow and forest overlap remains po...

Airborne LiDAR enables direct measurement of canopy height and three-dimensional forest structure, but many LiDAR-based studies remain difficult to reproduce due to ad hoc processing decisions and limited pipeline transp...

ABSTRACT Knowledge about water resources is critical for climate adaptation in face of long-term changes and more frequent extreme events occurrence. During the major droughts of 2005 and 2010, a large epicenter was loca...

This study explores the construction of tourist experience and conservation-oriented semiotic governance in a Balinese monkey forest. In the context of ecotourism, few studies examine the role of semiotic resources in me...

The global forest industry is focused on developing waste valorization technologies. Regional resources use in biorefineries could be a strategy to improve profitability and mitigate the environmental impact of the invol...

ABSTRACT Since prehistoric times, indigenous communities have relied on fish as a staple source of protein for their subsistence. In most cases, fish is the sole source of income and of animal protein for the communities...

Abstract Background Agroforestry, the intentional integration of trees or other woody perennials with crops or livestock in production systems, is being widely promoted as a conservation and development tool to help meet...

Changes in forest cover from forest to non-forest systems alter habitat structure and resource availability, thereby affecting the functional composition of bird communities. This study aimed to identify and compare the ...

Burrowing species can be considered important ecosystem engineers that increase landscape heterogeneity, create subterranean shelters and provide foraging opportunities. We measured and described different aspects of gia...

Atualmente a vegetação natural do Cerrado encontra-se altamente fragmentada, causando a perda da variabilidade genética e, concomitantemente, risco de extinção das populações remanescentes nestes fragmentos. Não ...

Urban forests significantly benefit cities and people´s wellbeing. However, under suboptimal growth conditions, they can pose risks. The tree risk and tree hazard assessments in public spaces bring together several prot...
