The INCT Climate Change aims to implement and develop a comprehensive network of interdisciplinary research on global change and sustainability, and is based on the cooperation between about 30 research groups from all regions of Brazil and 10 international research groups, involving in its entirety over approximately 300 researchers, students and technicians and establishing itself as on…
Predicting the beginning and end dates of the rainy season is an essential, but challenging, aspect of water management in tropical regions. However, predictions of the timing of the rainy season are not yet formally integrated into water management planning. One of the main goals of the ongoing FAPESP project is to evaluate Brazil's vulnerability to climate change in the context of water…
These theoretical studies will be intimately connected with the investigation of experimental and natural dynamical networks of increasing complexity starting from a few coupled lasers, via hybrid networks of neurons to the system Earth. The latter one is a special challenge for the network theory and it will be a focus of this project. A main topic will be the understanding of the functi…
The onset of the Amazon rainy season has a large temporal and spatial variability, and with this a strong impact on variability of the distribution of aerosols, ecosystems, fire and carbon fluxes, dry season length, agriculture, and hydropower. Changes of the length of the dry season, and increased dry season resilience due to CO2 fertilization, are the two leading factors from climate ch…

The education sector is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and associated climate-related disasters, such as floods, flash floods, storms, and landslides. However, the specific needs of children worldwide in the face of such disasters are often overlooked, even though citizens under the age of 18 incorporate a significant portion of the victims. Consequently, international…
