Amplified response of Amazon floodplain flows to rising river levels
The dynamics of Amazon floodplains is tightly connected to the adjacent river flood pulse, yet its hydrological functioning differs from that of the main channel. While the river transports water downstream, floodplain flows promote lateral connection, facilitating biogeochemical exchanges with the river and sustaining local ecosystems and riverine communities. Extreme floods in the Amazon Basin have become more frequent in recent years, and thei…

Increased floodplain inundation in the Amazon since 1980
Extensive floodplains throughout the Amazon basin support important ecosystem services and influence global water and carbon cycles. A recent change in the hydroclimatic regime of the region, with increased rainfall in the northern portions of the basin, has produced record-breaking high water levels on the Amazon River mainstem. Yet, the implications for the magnitude and duration of floodplain inundation across the basin remain unknown. Here we…
The Spiral of Time
Time is a central – if not the central – dimension of Hitchcock's Vertigo , as noted by Richard Goodkin (1991), who compares the film to Proust's À la recherche du temps perdu ; by Marker (1995), who has interpreted the idea of vertigo in the film as a metaphor for ‘the vertigo of time’; and by a number of authors who have applied Gilles Deleuze's ([1985] 1989) concept of the crystal‐image to key sequences in the film where past and future coales…
Chronology, mound-building and environment at Huaca Prieta, coastal Peru, from 13 700 to 4000 years ago
Renewed in-depth multi-disciplinary investigation of a large coastal mound settlement in Peru has extended the occupation back more than 7000 years to a first human exploitation ~13720 BP. Research by the authors has chronicled the prehistoric sequence from the activities of the first maritime foragers to the construction of the black mound and the introduction of horticulture and monumentality. The community of Huaca Prieta emerges as innovative…
Performance of a Brazilian population on the test of functional health literacy in adults
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the scoring obtained by an instrument, which evaluates the ability to read and understand items in the health care setting, according to education and age. METHODS: The short version of the Test of Functional Health Literacy in Adults was administered to 312 healthy participants of different ages and years of schooling. The study was conducted between 2006 and 2007, in the city of São Paulo, Southeastern Brazil. The test inc…
