Se hoje é natural ser uma mulher trabalhando com Ecologia em campo, muito foi pela Jane Goodall. Ela levou todas nós com ela ao gerar ciência de qualidade num meio, até então, predominantemente masculino.

An extremely necessary read - this comment in Nature is very uncomfortable, as it makes us question whether our actions are really addressing inequity in science or just making us fell better about ourselves.

In 49 days, COP30 will start. Despite countries' commitments to submit a new NDC in 2025, only 37 have done so. It is expected that this week, a few more will submit them during the UN General Assembly. The deadline was February. Climate change is not a priority.

I was thinking about the temperature too! I think the camera is picking up body heat - in 5min of footage temp increased 6C! Regardless, it would be hot in the Amazon, but not 45C under the canopy.

Excellent question! But no - the cubs can be either melanistic or not.

The cover of the journal, not of the paper. It is indeed confusing

Incredible camera trap footage of two jaguars (one melanistic - i.e. black) copulating in the Amazon. The end is particularly cute.

I've set a new record - I have asked 28 people to review a paper. TWENTY EIGHT. This has been going on for 4 months. The only review I've received is clearly AI. Peer-review is not doing well.

I am trying to find a paper establishing the minimum number of individuals within a community to run meagninful community composition analysis. We are currently using Permanova, but could be a paper focusing on any other similar analysis. Tips?

Soy crops squeeze Amazon park with 11,000-year-old rock paintings in Brazil Remarkable discoveries in an Amazon cave rewrote human history, but it remains largely unknown as farmers advance closely.

The first-ever solar calendar of the Americas is in the Amazon, along with several cave paintings still being found and mapped. These findings have helped to reset the dates of human arrival in South America. Exciting piece by @mongabay.com

Does anyone have a hack on how to extrack the side events from the UNFCCC platform so that it is easier to find merging possibilities? At the moment seems like copying and pasting every single event in Word is the only way and that is pure torture. Tips?
