The largest and most dynamic agricultural frontier in Brazil is known as MATOPIBA, an area
that covers part of the Cerrado biome. Within this region, Western Bahia stands out as a …

Nitrogen (N) cycling in mangroves is complex, with rapid turnover of low dissolved N
concentrations, but slow turnover of particulate N. Most N is stored in soils. The largest …

Native vegetation across the Brazilian Cerrado is highly heterogeneous and biodiverse and
provides important ecosystem services, including carbon and water balance regulation …

This study aimed to (1) examine the effects of land-use change on the soils of natural
Cerrado transformed to common croplands (soybean/cotton/maize rotation and sugarcane) …

Abstract Acrisols, Ferralsols, Leptosols and Planosols were sampled in layers down to 1 m
under dense caatinga, open caatinga, pasture and agriculture. Agricultural Leptosols and …

Progressive conversion of tropical rainforests to agricultural monocultures in South East Asia
increasingly affects landscape types such as riparian areas. The impacts of conversions on …
