O objetivo principal é o levantamento de dados referentes a três eixos prioritários. No eixo 3.1.1 Compreensão de habitats e suas espécies, a proposta tem como objetivos: I. Descrever e registrar os aspectos geológicos, geofísicos, estruturais, geomorfológicos e de solos das diversas unidades presentes em uma escala de detalhe; II. Caracterizar os elementos da vegetação e da fauna de inve…
Tropical regions are a major source of heat to mid- and high-latitudes. The Atlantic Ocean-Atmosphere system is unique as it is the only system that currently transports heat across the equator. Therefore, accomplishing accurate global climate reconstructions, documentation and implementation of Atlantic climates in large-scale climate models is essential. This, however, has been hampered…
Most of paleoclimatic interpretations are based on an artificial concept of specie, the morphospecies; they were classified basically on morphologic characteristics. Recently lots of species havd their genetic code described and it is recongnized that the classical morphospecies used nowadays are in fact composed by cryptic species and some of them display morphological intraspecific vari…
The species from Globorotalia menardii plex (Globorotalia menardii menardii; G. menardii flexuosa, G. menardii tumida e G. menardii fimbriata) are one of the principal indicators of glacial and interglacial boundaries through the Atlantic Ocean's Quaternary. The ecological affinity of these species agrees with the transition between these periods, being present during interglacials and ra…

Studies related to climate change have received great attention due to global warming caused by the increase in CO2 concentrations resulting mainly from anthropogenic action. However, impacts on ecological systems pre-date the oldest scientific observations and understanding modern extinctions requires additional data sources that extend further back in time. Palaeoecological records, whi…
The crinoids are a group of emblematic marine invertebrates, represented by sea lilies and featherstars, dating from the Ordovician Period to the present. These animals have shown a great diversity of species throughout the Paleozoic Era, especially during Devonian and Lower Carboniferous periods, with its diversity reduced drastically in the end of Permian, recovering in the Jurassic. In…
The present project aims to promote the dissemination of Oceanography at local and national levels, through the propagation of the activities of the 'Laboratório de Paleoceanografia do Atlântico Sul' (LAPAS/IO/USP), using strategies of communication that increase the public interest on scientific knowledge, spreading themes ranging from the study of the marine environment to understanding…

The Holothuroidea have worldwide distribution and are common components of benthic fauna since Ordovician. With skeleton composed by calcite, the sea cucumbers can be used as proxies to infer the global climate changes from approaches involving the composition of species, as well as their response to climate changes. However, the first step to make these analyses and them to construct pre…
Recently, several molecular studies in planktic foraminifera demonstrated that morphospecies recognised nowadays are in fact composed of two or more species, cryptic species. This investigations have been developed on recent specimens collected on the water column with presence of biological material for performing such studies. Nevertheless, in sediment samples only the shells of the in…
