Espécies Nativas da Flora Brasileira de Valor Econômico Atual ou Potencial
O Brasil detém a maior riqueza de flora em âmbito mundial e de remanescentes de ecossistemas tropicais. Assim, observamos nas diferentes regiões a ocorrência de centenas de espécies da biodiversidade com alto valor ecológico, genético, social, econômico, científico, educacional, cultural e estético. Essa é uma enorme vantagem comparativa para o país, que precisa conhecer a flora nativa para promover sua utilização. Na medida em que valorizamos e utilizamos a nossa biodiversidade, aumentamos a preservação, ampliamos o número de espécies utilizadas, que vem se restringindo nos últimos anos, e contribuímos para a adaptação às mudanças do clima, com o emprego de plantas m...
Culinária brasileira, muito prazer
O mundo gastronômico exige cada vez mais que os profissionais pesquisem, busquem estar sempre em contato com o campo e retornem às tradições culinárias locais perdidas no tempo. Ao se ouvir a recorrente expressão “do campo à mesa”, vêm ao pensamento as comidas feitas por nossos antepassados e em como o Brasil é gigante, repleto de ingredientes que não conhecemos, de pratos que nunca saboreamos e outros que não são mais encontrados. Mais uma vez, pude acompanhar a jornalista Roberta Malta Saldanha na aventura de trabalhar as receitas brasileiras neste seu novo livro, que traz muitos ingredientes inusitados e receitas novas de profissionais renomados da gastronomia regional. É...
Mainstreaming Biodiversity for Sustainable Development
Drawing on experiences and insights from 16 megadiverse countries, this report examines how biodiversity is being mainstreamed in four key areas.

Water Resources Management V
Water resources, upon which the well-being of future generations depends, are under extreme pressure today all over the world. Resulting problems have given rise to many issues including water quality, quantity, management and planning, and reflect the growing concern and importance accorded to their sustainable management. The Fifth International Conference on Water Resources Management presents the more recent technological and scientific developments associated with the management of surface and sub-surface water resources. The papers are grouped under the following topics: Water Management and Planning; Waste Water Treatment and Re-use; Water Quality; Pollution Control; Management and Economics; Decision Support Systems; Hydraulic Systems; Flood Risk; Hydraulic Modelling; Irrigation Problems; Governance and Monitoring.

Ethnozoology
Ethnozoology: Animals In Our Lives represents the first book about this discipline, providing a discussion on key themes on human-animal interactions and their implications, along with recent major advances in research. Humans share the world with a bewildering variety of other animals, and have interacted with them in different ways. This variety of interactions (both past and present) is investigated through ethnozoology, which is a hybrid discipline structured with elements from both the natural and social sciences, as it seeks to understand how humans have perceived and interacted with faunal resources throughout history. In a broader context, ethnozoology, and its companion discipline, ...
Dynamics of the Pantanal Wetland in South America
This book provides readers with in-depth insights into the changes in the Pantanal wetland from its formation to the actual and likely future states. It reveals that today’s Pantanal is an evolutionary consequence of geological, ecological and, more recently, man-made events taking place at distinct space-time intervals. Topics include geotectonics and sun-earth interactions, which largely dictate the rate of drastic changes that eventually disrupt ecological stability and radically rebuild the regional landscape. Furthermore, the biota-climate system is discussed as a major driver reshaping the ecohydrology functioning of the landscape on an intermediate timescale. Also covered are major changes in the landscape ecohydrology and biodiversity due to recent land-use and climate changes induced by humankind in the Anthropocene. The ability to recognize how those temporal scales impact the Pantanal wetland provides the opportunity for wise management approaches and the sustainable development of the region.
