Long-term detection of active fires in a Neotropical National Forest: implications for management

Maycon Lima da Silva, Hudson Coimbra Félix, Larissa Moura Diehl, José Vicente Elias Bernardi et autres

Abstract Fire, depending on its intensity, frequency and duration, can have a undesired pernicious effect in natural protected areas (NPAs). However, little is known on the dynamic of fire in NPAs within developing countries. In the present paper we answer the following …

Mercury contamination in imported shark meat (“cação”) and implications for human exposure in Brazil

Lucas Cabrera Monteiro, Fábio José Viana Costa, Carlos Benigno Vieira de Carvalho, Adhim Santiago Júnior et autres

Brazil is the largest global consumer of shark meat, marketed as “cação,” yet traceability and risk assessment are limited due to unclear labeling and insufficient monitoring. Shark meat is a source of toxic elements, particularly mercury (Hg), posing significant health risks, especially …

Organic matter and seasonal flooding control mercury and methane distribution in sediments of a floodplain lake in the Madeira River basin (western Amazon)

Yara Paole Lopes de Paiva Sodré, Lucas Cabrera Monteiro, Cláudio Eduardo Azevedo-Silva, Ronaldo Almeida Júnior et autres

We investigated the spatial distribution and environmental controls of total Hg (THg), methane (CH 4 ), and nutrient accumulation in the sediments of an Amazonian lake during low-water and high-water periods. THg concentrations were similar between hydrological periods (0.103 ± 0.035 mg …

A Snapshot of Species Composition and Mercury Bioaccumulation in Fish from Natural and Constructed Wetlands

Lucas Cabrera Monteiro, Thiago Nascimento da Silva Campos, Vitória Cristhina da Silva Santos, Layon Junior Silva Santos et autres

We compared fish assemblage structure and total mercury (THg) bioaccumulation between a natural floodplain lake and a constructed irrigation canal in central Brazil. A total of 473 individuals representing 34 species were recorded, and dorsal muscle samples from 62 specimens representing shared …

Screening of Mercury Bioaccumulation in Birds (Passeriformes) from a Major Wetland of the Brazilian Cerrado

Lucas Cabrera Monteiro, Renato Caparroz, Marcelo Lisita Junqueira, Pedro Henrique Vogeley et autres

Abstract We quantified total mercury (THg) in feathers of Passeriformes from the Araguaia River floodplain (Brazil) to assess bioaccumulation and biomagnification across trophic guilds. Thirty-nine individuals from 22 non-migratory species were analyzed. Feather THg ranged from 0.05 to 2.35 mg kg −1 …
