Optimizing Mine Land Revegetation
One challenge of revegetating mined areas is establishing vegetation that quickly promotes soil cover and accumulates biomass. This work compared biomass production and vegetation cover between a Non‐native cocktail (8 noninvasive exotic species) and a Native cocktail (12 species native to the National Forest of Carajás, Brazil) to guide species selection for revegetation. Ex situ and in situ tests were conducted in the Carajás Mineral Province. …
Soil Quality Indicators and Machine Learning to Assess Iron Mining Waste Piles Revegetation in the Eastern Amazon
In the eastern Brazilian Amazon, iron mining significantly impacts the environment. This study evaluated soil recovery in revegetated mining waste piles in the Carajás Mineral Province, focusing on chemical, physical, and biological indicators. Revegetation stages (0–2, 3–5, 6–8, and 9–11 years) were evaluated and compared to native tropical forest reference soils over 4 years, during the dry season. After 9–11 years, soil organic carbon (SOC), m…
Combining approaches for environmental assessment of rehabilitated gold‐mining areas in the Eastern Amazon
Monitoring key soil and vegetation attributes in mining areas under environmental rehabilitation is essential to ensure that the intervention techniques are effective. There are several approaches to monitoring mining areas and their integration is necessary to process large amounts of information. Thus, this study aimed to (i) assess soil multi‐contamination with potentially toxic elements (PTE) and human health risks; (ii) obtain a soil quality…
Mapping soil organic carbon stock through remote sensing tools for monitoring iron minelands under rehabilitation in the Amazon
Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Mimosa acutistipula Success in Amazonian Rehabilitating Minelands
Mimosa acutistipula is endemic to Brazil and grows in ferruginous outcrops ( canga ) in Serra dos Carajás, eastern Amazon, where one of the largest iron ore deposits in the world is located. Plants that develop in these ecosystems are subject to severe environmental conditions and must have adaptive mechanisms to grow and thrive in cangas . Mimosa acutistipula is a native species used to restore biodiversity in post-mining areas in canga . Unders…
Forecasting deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon to prioritize conservation efforts
As Amazon deforestation rates reach the highest levels observed in the past decade, it is extremely important to direct conservation efforts to regions containing preserved forests with a high risk of deforestation. This requires forecasting deforestation, a complex endeavor due to the interplay of multiple socioeconomic, political, and environmental factors across different spatial and temporal scales. Here we couple high-resolution land-cover m…
