Sugarcane ethanol is an alcohol-based renewable biofuel produced by the fermentation of sugarcane extract and molasses, and Brazil is the world's largest producer of it. Brazil is also the largest producer of sugar; hence, sugarcane agriculture in the country is quite extensive, covering an area of about 10 million ha of arable land and ranking as the third largest crop after corn and soy…
The Workshop ´Applied Meta-ecology´ will take place in Ilhabela from 13 to 19 March 2016 with a selection of 24 participants from Brazil, Argentina, USA, Canada, France and Finland including some leading authors in the field, and established and promising young researchers working on applied ecology. The workshop will follow a format designed for optimal catalysis and complementarity in d…
The dawn of a new paradigm in energy supply - biofuels - points to the continued expansion of agriculture in Brazil in the near future. The country is in an exceptionally favorable position to assume the global leadership in biofuel production for possessing both ideal geographic and environmental conditions and the already most efficient ethanol industry worldwide. Not surprisingly howev…
The South and Southeast regions of Brazil are experiencing climate changes that are already affecting human supply, agriculture and the endemic biodiversity of the Atlantic Forest. Seasonal winds known as "flying rivers" transport water vapor from the Amazon to the Atlantic Forest, and the breakdown of this ecosystem service could lead Atlantic Forest species to population decline and ext…
The conversion of native habitats and subsequent intensification in land use is recognized as one of the main drivers of environmental degradation worldwide. Several lines of evidence now suggest that the loss of biodiversity and ecosystem function in modified landscapes partly result from the spatial isolation and diminishing quality of remaining habitat patches. This Undergraduate Resea…

The metacommunity is one of the most promising frameworks for understanding the consequences of environmental change on biodiversity because it addresses how spatial isolation and different selective pressures affect similarity among communities. Here we intend to use the metacommunity framework to understand how different vectors of land use intensification affects similarity among fresh…
