The paper introduces The Freshwater Sounds Archive, a global database of species-specific freshwater sounds, aiming to improve species identification from soundscape recordings and enable machine learning applications.

This study assesses fire-proneness of land cover types in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest, finding secondary forests burn more than expected while old-growth forests burn less, with implications for fire management.

The paper analyzes 34 years of landscape change in the Atlantic Forest, showing a decline in forest and natural vegetation cover, with some recovery after 2005 and significant impacts from linear infrastructure.
