This study examines a mangrove sediment core to evaluate the potential environmental impact of a large-scale port-industrial construction in a tropical lagoonal-estuary near Recife, NE Brazil. Here, we measure sediment accreation rate (SAR), carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes (未13C and 未15N)...
The Structure and Function of a Tropical Savannah Ecosystem The higher levels of biological organization, called ecosystems, are of growing interest to ecologists. Ecosystems are defined as systems of plants and animals interacting together in a given environment. Research on ecosystems can be qu......

The international challenge lies in the development of effective and equitable approaches to global environmental problems that are supported by a well-resourced bureaucracy and appropriate financial mechanisms. However, in the last few years, a new initiative has come out bringing together recent scienti...
Shrub encroachment into grasslands affects species biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, but its impact on herbaceous diseases and the role of climatic factors remain unclear. This study finds that shrubs reduce pathogen load in colder regions but may increase it in warmer regions, with temperature be...
A study using multiple satellite observations shows that the land-surface warming due to tropical forest loss is stronger than the cooling due to tropical forest gain. This effect should be included in Earth system models, particularly as tropical afforestation is considered to be a natural climate...
environmental problems cannot be addressed, or can only be addressed at great cost, using existing technologies. As a result, understanding the interactions between environmental policy and technology may have quantitatively important consequences in the context of cost–benefit or cost-effectiveness analyse...
