The Cerrado and Caatinga biomes have the largest available stock of land for agricultural expansion in Brazil, besides having vast areas of high solar and wind potential. Their natural resources are also vital for climate regulation and for human survival and well-being. The general objective of this proposal is to explore how a participatory approach, integrating qualitative and quantita…
This proposed research aims to study the lifecycle of secondary aerosols in pristine and polluted conditions in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) of Amazonia. The investigation spans the biological and physical conditions influencing emissions and reactions of precursors (biogenic and anthropogenic volatile organic compounds, VOCs), formation, transport of aerosols out of the ABL and t…
This project proposes activities of research and technological development to test the use of a prototype of environmental sensors (geosensors) in a study site of tropical forest in Amazonia, Brazil, forming a sensor network with high spatial resolution, and to develop software tools for data quality control and integration. The main premise is that the geosensors should have relatively l…
In Brazil, Cerrado and Caatinga biomes are identified as the main providers of land available for converting natural vegetation into areas for agriculture. However, the transition from natural areas to anthropogenic systems can bring greater implications in relation to loss of biodiversity, regulation of the hydrological and climate regimes, in addition to affecting local socioeconomic re…

Fire is essential to maintain the diversity and integrity of Cerrado. With global climate change and the intensification of human activities in the Biome, fire regime in Cerrado is being altered, allowing more frequent, intense, and damaging fires in the Biome. As a strategy to prevent large scales fires, Integrated Fire Management (IFM) is being legally implemented in Brazil since 2012, …
