- AmazonFACE/ME: the Amazon-FACE Model-Experiment integration project - the role of biodiversity and climate feedbacks, AP.PFPMCG.JP
Abstract
Despite being suggested, for more than 20 years now, as a process of utter importance for the resilience of tropical forests and maintenance of the global carbon cycle, the existence, magnitude and duration of a supposed "CO2 fertilization" effect in tropical forests remains largely undetermined. This research proposal - submitted concomitantly to DFG by German collaborator scientists -...
- Modeling the role of nutrients for the stability of the Amazon Forest in light of climate change, BP.DD
Abstract
The Amazon forest dieback hypothesis was postulated in early 2000, and many studies suggested that a future climate induced dieback of the Amazon forest was a real possibility. More recently, it was considered less probable since the Carbon Dioxide (CD) fertilization effect would maintain forest productivity and biomass for decades to come. The response of the Amazon forest to elevated ...
- An analysis modeling of the hydrological cycle and impacts of increased atmospheric CO2 concentration in the Amazon, BP.IC
Abstract
Modeling systems are important in the context of environmental sciences because they can simultaneously aggregate and isolate many environmental factors, transforming them into good tools for assessing the impacts of future climate change. This paper aims at two proposals: 1- validation and calibration of a water balance model using updated input data; 2- application of this model in th...
- Construction of compensation mechanisms for environmental services in the sugarcane belt of the paulista interior using participatory methods, BP.MS
Abstract
Brazil is one of the major producer and exporter of agricultural commodities and a world potency in terms of biodiversity and water resources. With land use in the process of intensification, it becomes increasingly important the attention to potential synergies between agriculture and conservation of natural resources, represented perhaps the best way, through the concept of ecosystem ...
- An update of the Socio-Climatic Vulnerability Index for Brazil, BP.IC
Abstract
The difficulties in the communication between scientists and decision makers can be partly attributed to flaws in the translation of scientific results into strategic options for action and / or viable policies. The aim of the Socio-Climatic Vulnerability Index (SCVI) is to translate the complexity and amount of data produced and compiled by climate and society scientists in a clear and...

- Including farmers in programs of payment for ecosystem services: a comparison between Scotland and Brazil, BE.EP.MS
Abstract
The human demand for goods and services has been increasing rapidly, in many cases exceeding the capacity of the ecosystem to provide them. There is an increasing concern about enhancing ESS provisioning capacity at the global level. In this sense, the compensation - either monetary or non-monetary - for ecosystem services related to carbon storage, water and biodiversity conservation, ...
