Shifts in phylogenetic diversity of archaeal communities in mangrove sediments at different sites and depths in southeastern Brazil
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BVAMSTERDAM, 2012)
This study focused on the structure and composition of archaeal communities in sediments of tropical mangroves in order to obtain sufficient insight into two Brazilian sites from different locations (one pristine and another ...
Changes in Abiotic Factors Drive Non-native Plants Colonization in Subtropical Mangroves
(2021-10-01)
The colonization and spread of non-native species are recognized as a critical driver of environmental change in mangrove ecosystems. However, environmental factors that favor non-native plant colonization in mangroves are ...
Quantification of microbial mat response to physical disruption in siliciclastic sediments
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-10)
Microbially-colonized sediments tend to be more resistant to erosional events than mostly abiotic sediments. However, the effect of complex microbial associations, such as microbial mats over sediments and the protection ...
Distribution of butyltin compounds in Brazil's southern and southeastern estuarine ecosystems: assessment of spatial scale and compartments
(Springer, 2016-08-01)
Butyltin compounds (BTs), including tributyltin (TBT) and its degradation products, dibutyltin and monobutyltin, have been found in a diversity of aquatic systems and causing toxic effects in target and nontarget organisms. ...
Regenerative bioturbation by intertidal burrowing crabs modifies microphytobenthic composition and enhances primary production in SW Atlantic mudflats
(Inter-Research, 2019-12)
In coastal systems, benthic microalgae are important primary producers that significantly contribute to global primary production. Microphytobenthic (MPB) community structure and the ecosystem functions that it mediates ...
Environmental variables and intertidal beach annelids of Sao Sebastiao Channel (State of Sao Paulo, Brazil)
(Revista De Biologia TropicalSan JoseCosta Rica, 2001)
Relationships between landform properties and vegetation patterns in the Cerro Zonda Mt., Central Precordillera of San Juan. Argentina
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-09)
Arid environments are dynamic systems due, in part, to the action of hydrological processes. However, studies on the relationship between the abiotic factors and the properties of arid vegetation communities of Argentina ...
Environmental factors modulating the abundance and distribution of Callinectes danae (Decapoda: Portunidae) from two areas of the southeastern coast of Brazil
(De Gruyter Open Ltd, 2014-10-01)
The distribution and abundance of marine organisms are directly or indirectly a function of biotic and abiotic features such as sediment and water properties. In this study we analyzed the spatial and temporal distribution ...
