Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado do Amazonas (FAPEAM)
The agreement with FAPEAM - Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado do Amazonas aims to develop and support projects of scientific and technological cooperation, to be established among researchers and public or private higher education and research institutions, respectively in the State of São Paulo and in the State of Amazonas.
The effects on water storage, quality and movement through the continental compartments of hydrological cycle, resulting from climate change and urbanization processes have been observed and described in different parts of the world, however their effects in Central Amazonia, where the municipality of Manaus is located, can be intensified due to the disordered processes of land use conver…
The State of Amazonas is a very relevant case in Brazil in terms of food security, because on the one hand it presents a bounty of natural resources for food but on the other it has some of the worst nutritional indicators in the country. The State of Amazonas presents a clear east-west gradient of nutritional vulnerability, with Manaus presenting medium vulnerability, and municipalities …
Physical, chemical and biological processes maintain constant interaction between plant and soil. The effects of these processes are named plant-soil feedbacks and are little known in the the Amazon soils, being critical for restoring plant biodiversity and the properties of ecosystems. The objective of this work is to evaluate plant-soil feedbacks in the forest and in agricultural system…

Tambaqui Colossoma macropomum is the main native fish produced by the national aquaculture. However, the production chain of this fish has been significantly affected by acantocephalosis, caused by the endoparasite Neoechinorhynchus buttnerae. The selection of superior genotypes for resistance/tolerance to acantocephalosis is a fundamental approach to improve production in the context of …
The present project intends to study the Mariuá Archipelago, considered the largest on the planet, which is located in the middle stretch of the Rio Negro, Amazon. It has more than 1,400 islands, whose deposits can keep records of the main sedimentary, climatic and tectonic processes that influenced the evolution stages of the Rio Negro Basin. This archipelago is considered a priority reg…
Nutrition is one of the main challenge of fish production because feed represents to 70% of total cost. Considering that the price of the feed rises as the protein content increases, the use of carbohydrates in the diet can result in a protein-sparing effect. The frugivorous eating habit of tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) suggests that this species has physiological mechanisms for the use…
