Mangroves, which are a group of salt tolerant plant community growing in the transition
zones of fresh and marine water systems, play an important role as sediment trap. In …

Camera trapping allows scientists to study activity patterns of animals under natural
conditions. However, comparisons of activity patterns across seasons or latitudes can be …

Saltmarshes are important global carbon (C) sinks, but the considerable uncertainty in the C
budget and the underlying mechanisms limit the estimation of greenhouse gas emissions …

This synthesis is framed within the scope of the Brazilian Benthic Coastal Habitat Monitoring
Network (ReBentos WG 4: Mangroves and Salt Marshes), focusing on papers that examine …

The crab Ucides cordatus and the red mangrove Rhizophora mangle are endemic
mangrove species and potential bio-accumulators of metals. This study quantified the …

Iron and sulfur are key elements in the biogeochemistry of estuarine soils, in which Fe and
sulfate reduction (SR) pathways are important for organic matter decomposition. In the semi …

This study aimed to fill a gap in the sustainable management of the reverse supply chain of
Guaiamum and Uçá crab waste in Brazil, an endangered species. The study focused on the …

Mangrove forests are among the most productive and diverse ecosystems on the planet,
despite limited nitrogen (N) availability. Under such conditions, animal-microbe associations …

Globally, there is a lack of knowledge about tropical ecotoxicology dealing with the potential
impact of metal contamination in mangrove ecosystem. This habitat is considered a nursery …

Burrowing crabs are widely distributed and have large populations in estuarine wetlands.
Crab excavation can have potentially significant bioturbation effects on the vertical structure …
