Urban Stream Degradation, Organic Matter Retention and Implications for Environmental Health in the Central Amazon
Urbanization alters the hydrological and structural functioning of tropical urban streams, influencing organic matter transport and retention processes. This study investigated leaf litter retention dynamics in the Bindá Stream in central Amazonia. A six-month leaf release experiment (100 leaves per 12 trial; 1200 leaves total) was conducted alongside hydrological monitoring and floristic surveys of riparian vegetation (adult and regeneration str…
A new data-driven map predicts substantial undocumented peatland areas in Amazonia
Tropical peatlands are among the most carbon-dense terrestrial ecosystems yet recorded. Collectively, they comprise a large but highly uncertain reservoir of the global carbon cycle, with wide-ranging estimates of their global area (441 025–1700 000 km 2 ) and below-ground carbon storage (105–288 Pg C). Substantial gaps remain in our understanding of peatland distribution in some key regions, including most of tropical South America. Here we comp…

Hyperdominance in the Amazonian Tree Flora
Introduction Recent decades have seen a major international effort to inventory tree communities in the Amazon Basin and Guiana Shield (Amazonia), but the vast extent and record diversity of these forests have hampered an understanding of basinwide patterns. To overcome this obstacle, we compiled and standardized species-level data on more than half a million trees in 1170 plots sampling all major lowland forest types to explore patterns of commo…
