Tropical forests are one of the most important global carbon sinks, compensating a significant fraction of global anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Understanding what drives their capacity to absorb and store carbon in the future is of utmost importance. In addition to its key relevance for the global carbon and water cycles, biodiversity, and traditional human populations, the Amazon forest i…
Perhaps one of the greatest challenges facing science and the society today is how to predict and monitor the consequences of global change for life on Earth (Higgins & Scheiter 2012). The speed of changes in land use and climate, together with fast diversity losses, pollution and changes in the hydrological cycle urge rapid answers for ensuring the endurance of biological diversity, ecos…
More than 85% of the Brazilian area was originally covered by three biomes: the Amazon, the Cerrado and the Atlantic forest, all among the most biodiverse in the world. However, land use changes and deforestation have reduced this area to less than 60%, and much of the remaining vegetated areas sustain secondary and disturbed vegetation rather than primary vegetation. In addition, the cli…
Faced with the challenge of planning multifunctional landscapes to ensure the retention of both original biological diversity and ecosystem functions, as well as agricultural production, this project aims to investigate how parameters of landscape structure directly or indirectly regulates key ecosystem services through influencing a series of distinct ecological processes. As ecosystem s…
