Rural development and shifts in household dietary practices from 1999 to 2010 in the Tapajós River region, Brazilian Amazon

Rural livelihood trajectories in the central Brazilian Amazon
Blood antioxidant nutrients in riparian villagers of the Brazilian Amazon
This study associates blood antioxidants like copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), selenium (Se), zinc (Zn), β-carotene, lycopene and vitamins (A and E) to sociodemographic features and seasonality in communities from the Tapajós River region, Brazilian Amazon. We observed increased Mn, Se and Zn levels compared to the average Brazilian population, whereas this is only the case for β-carotene in the rainy season. Lycopene levels fall within the reference…
Livelihood activities and land-use at a riparian frontier of the Brazilian Amazon
Les connaissances au quotidien
Dans cet article nous nous sommes intéressés à la pêche vivrière et artisanale pratiquée par les riverains de l'Amazonie. Les résultats présentés, touchant le savoir traditionnel de ces populations, leurs perceptions des changements environnementaux et de l'évolution des ressources halieutiques, ainsi que les solutions à y apporter, proviennent de deux questionnaires administrés à douze communautés du bassin du Tapajós. Ces résultats apportent un…
The gap between scientists and journalists
This research aimed to better understand the gap between journalists and scientists in the context of the media coverage of an environmental issue in Québec (Canada). Through in-depth interviews with journalists and scientists, we were able to identify different sources of frustration felt by both protagonists, notably the question of the scientists’ revision of the journalists’ text, the journalists’ lack of accuracy, and the problem of differen…
Recovery of Mercury-Contaminated Fisheries
In this paper, we synthesize available information on the links between changes in ecosystem loading of inorganic mercury (Hg) and levels of methylmercury (MeHg) in fish. Although it is widely hypothesized that increased Hg load to aquatic ecosystems leads to increases in MeHg in fish, there is limited quantitative data to test this hypothesis. Here we examine the available evidence from a range of sources: studies of ecosystems contaminated by i…
