The influence of flower density on beetle visitation rates remains unclear, with responses varying by species and environmental factors. In the Caatinga Seasonally Dry Tropical Forest, we studied the flower occupancy distribution of two beetle species, Cyclocephala paraguayensis and Nitops aff. pilosocerei, in Pilosocereus pachycladus cacti. Our findings indicate that both beetle species act as commensals with minimal impact on effective pollination. They forage for nectar and pollen without causing damage to pistils or ovaries. N. aff. pilosocerei was more abundant than C. paraguayensis, and their distributions significantly differed, with N. aff. pilosocerei displaying a more uniform spread. Instances of both species occupying the same flower were more frequent than exclusive occupation. Nitops aff. pilosocerei abundance exhibited spatial autocorrelation. Flower height and beetle species influenced the total number of beetles within flowers. Future studies should explore the impact of cactus flower distribution on beetle abundance with other species, conduct selective pollination experiments to determine their role as pollinators, and investigate how flower-beetle interaction systems are affected by flower and individual distribution in processes like florivory and pollination.","PeriodicalId":7776,"journal":{"name":"Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciencias","volume":"96 suppl 3","pages":"e20231361"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142852176","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Marine microorganisms are important in this scenario, being the main biological agents in the cycling of many elements. The Archaea domain is widely distributed in the oceans, and its presence in Antarctica is acknowledged. In this context, this work aimed to analyze the diversity and distribution of archaea according to environmental parameters in the waters surrounding the north of the Antarctic Peninsula. For environmental characterization studies, surface and bottom data were used for the ten monitoring stations of expeditions that took place in the summer of 2014 and 2015. The sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene was performed on the Illumina HiSeq platform, using the SILVA v138 database. The results revealed the presence of three main water bodies: Antarctic Surface Water, Shelf Waters, and modified Circumpolar Deep Water. Deep waters had higher diversity than surface waters, and the dominant groups were Nitrososphaeria and MGII. In the study region, the main factor responsible for the differences in the ecosystems was the presence of distinct water masses and the stratification of the water column. We argue that it is essential to consider water mass dynamics to study the microbial landscape of the Southern Ocean.","PeriodicalId":7776,"journal":{"name":"Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciencias","volume":"96 suppl 2","pages":"e20240585"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142852162","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Anthropogenic emissions of residual gases have changed the tropospheric composition in this region due to burning. This study aims to analyze the spatial patterns of atmospheric pollutants (including carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), black carbon (BC), organic carbon (OC) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) and aerosol optical depth, along with fire outbreaks across the Pantanal biome from 2016 to 2021. The data collected is based on remote sensing data. The fire outbreaks peaked pollutant concentrations reached their highest between June to November, particularly during the drier months of August to October. This increase was even greater during the last three years (2019-2021), especially in 2020, when the average CO, NO2, SO2, BC, and OC concentrations increased by 29%, 31%, 50%, 52%, and 50%, respectively. The rainfall values do not justify the increase in the number of fire outbreaks between 2019 and 2021, indicating that the rise is likely due to increased burning. In 2021, the average monthly rainfall was 48% greater than that in 2016-2020 but it had the highest FRP value and the second highest fire outbreak number and pollutant concentration. The 2020 year experienced a record number of fire outbreaks and the highest levels of pollutants in the atmosphere in the region for this period.","PeriodicalId":7776,"journal":{"name":"Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciencias","volume":"96 suppl 3","pages":"e20240174"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142852210","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Stable isotope ratios (δD and δ18O) and ionic content, determined at the Centro Polar e Climático of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (CPC/UFRGS), were used to date the core and reconstruct the climatic conditions at the site. The core represents approximately 11 years ± 6 months of precipitation, i.e., a mean net snow accumulation rate of 0.19 ± 0.02 m a-1 in water equivalent. Using the non-sea-salt sulfate values, we identified the 2011 Puyhue-Cordón (Chile) volcanic eruption signal, providing a reference horizon for dating. Anions represent 53.73% of the ionic content. We identified that 96.86% of calcium and 84.50% of sulfate are non-sea origin, while the acidic contribution is 25.62% H+. We observed high peaks in marine aerosols containing Na+, Cl-, and Mg2+ during winter, and results from the ERA5 global model (NOAA) indicated that El Niño events could influence Antarctic temperatures, facilitating the transport of marine aerosols to the continent.","PeriodicalId":7776,"journal":{"name":"Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciencias","volume":"96 suppl 2","pages":"e20240243"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142852141","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There was reduction in the nitrogen metabolization coefficient with the inclusion of 150 g/kg SWM. The feed intake, production and egg mass worsened with 150 g/kg inclusion. The inclusion of SWM at all levels reduced the values of specific gravity and Hugh units, and the level 150 g/kg promoted reduction in shell percentage and shell thickness.
