Pronounced loss of Amazon rainforest resilience since the early 2000s

Chris A. Boulton et al.

Summary: The resilience of the Amazon rainforest to climate and land-use change is crucial for biodiversity, regional climate, and the global carbon cycle. However, deforestation and climate change have led to a decrease in resilience of more than three-quarters of the rainforest since the early 2000s, indicating a potential tipping point.

The novel mangrove environment and composition of the Amazon Delta

Angelo F. Bernardino et al.

Summary: Brazil has abundant freshwater floodplain forests and brackish-saline mangroves. In the Amazon Delta, there is a unique wetland forest where extensive mangroves exist in freshwater tidal environments. The hydrology of these ecosystems is influenced by large macro-tides and freshwater discharge from the Amazon River. These mangroves have a unique mix of plant species and soil porewater chemistry and provide similar ecosystem services to other mangroves worldwide.

Cross-Taxon Congruence of Taxonomic and Functional Beta-Diversity Facets Across Spatial and Temporal Scales

Fernando Miranda Lansac-Toha et al.

Summary: This study aimed to examine the variations in the cross-taxon congruence of taxonomic and functional beta diversity across space and time. The results partially supported the hypothesis that the strength of cross-taxon congruence is negatively related to between-group functional distance.

Evaluation of the effects of urbanization and environmental features on sandy beach macrobenthos highlights the importance of submerged zones

Guilherme N. Corte et al.

Summary: This study shows that sandy beach biodiversity is affected by environmental features and urbanization. Morphodynamic features are the main drivers of macrobenthos, while urbanization-related variables decrease species richness and biomass. Submerged zones have the highest number of species and biomass in the across-shore gradient, but they are also the most impacted by human activities.

Variability in the degree of euryhalinity of neotropical estuarine annelids

Serena Mucciolo et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the responses to salinity challenges in four species of neotropical annelids along a subtropical estuarine gradient. The responses of the four species were found to be compatible with their distribution along the estuarine gradient.

The threat of freshwater input on sandy beaches: A small-scale approach to assess macrofaunal changes related to salinity reduction

Ivan R. A. Laurino et al.

Summary: Increased rainfall has led to higher freshwater inputs in subtropical coastal regions, reducing salinity levels and affecting benthic biodiversity. This study found that salinity reduction significantly impacted the distribution and richness of polychaete species, while crustacean abundance remained unaffected.

Seasonality of pluviosity and saline intrusion drive meiofauna and nematodes on an Amazon freshwater-oligohaline beach

Erivaldo Baia et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the effects of seasonal variation in rainfall and saline intrusion on meiofauna/nematodes diversity and abundance on a mesotidal beach located in the mixing zone of an Amazon estuary. The results showed that density variation in meiofauna community had a direct relationship with increased rainfall and decreased salinity. Seasonal changes in rain and salinity strongly affected meiofauna, both at the level of large groups and at the level of Nematoda genera.

Patterns of spatial and temporal distribution of the macrobenthic fauna on an estuarine macrotidal sandy beach on the Amazon coast (Brazil)

Thuareag Monteiro Trindade dos Santos et al.

Summary: This study characterized spatial and temporal variations in the structure of macrobenthic communities on an Amazonian macrotidal sandy beach, showing that two different faunal zonation schemes were observed in different seasons, with smooth physical gradients in the rainy season.

Baseline Study of Trace Element Concentrations in Sediments of the Intertidal Zone of Amazonian Oceanic Beaches

Jessica C. E. Vilhena et al.

Summary: The study found that the composition and concentration of trace elements in the sandy sediments of the intertidal areas of three Amazonian beaches are relatively homogeneous, with most sampling points showing no contamination, only a few points being moderately to severely contaminated. Cadmium and mercury are the only elements with moderate to very high pollution levels.
