This proposal aims to create a Science Center for Development (CCD) aimed at the elaboration of strategies for the restoration of native vegetation in the Atlantic Forest Biome (Atlantic Forest Strategy - CCD-EMA). The project aims to generate information, presented in the form of strategic actions, aiming at the implementation of commitments to restore native vegetation in this biome, de…
This proposal seeks to create a nucleus of analysis and synthesis of nature-based solutions (the BIOTA SYNTHESIS) aimed at solving socio-environmental problems presented by the government of the state of São Paulo, with a focus on demands that have been put forward by the Secretariats of Infrastructure and Environment, Agriculture and Supply, and Health. The research approach is inspired …
The implementation of the "New Forest Code" law, due to its complexity and its several sector disputes involved, needs to be supported by technical analysis, strongly based on scientific research. Scientific knowledge organized specifically for supporting the implementation of this law can assist the decision makers in the public consultation and in the necessary dialogues between various…
Within Brazilian territory, Legal Amazon covers an area of around 4.4 million Km². Given that the Amazon region is rich in mineral resources, its exploration is a major factor in environmental degradation. Thus, the present study has the basic objective of proposing a recuperation plan for the area degraded by cassiterite mining with the National Forest of Jamari/RO. The study will be car…

Compensation is a wide term that encompasses several types of actions to reward or pay for environmental losses. Compensation may be implemented considering ecological equivalence, which requires the use of common biodiversity components to compare biodiversity losses and gains. There may be levels of equivalence across compensation, and one of them is called offset, a contentious conserv…
Because of increasing demand of agricultural products, driven by population growth, income distribution, urbanization, diet shifts and bio-based economy actions, the agricultural production worldwide is expected to increase. Brazil is one of the most important suppliers of global agricultural goods (food, feed and bioenergy), and still has large extensions of preserved land and mega biodi…
