Brazilian Atlantic Forest Lato Sensu: The Most Ancient Brazilian Forest, And A Biodiversity Hotspot, Is Highly Threatened By Climate Change [mata Atlântica Lato Sensu: A Mais Antiga Das Florestas Brasileiras, E Um Hotspot De Biodiversidade, Está Altamente Ameaçada Pelas Mudanças Climáticas]
No full textAfter 500 years of exploitation and destruction, the Brazilian Atlantic Forest has been reduced to less the 8% of its original cover, and climate change may pose a new threat to the remnants of this biodiversity hotspot. In this study we used modelling techniques to determine present and future geographical distribution of 38 species of trees that are typical of the Brazilian Atlantic Forest (Mata Atlântica), considering two global warming scenarios. The optimistic scenario, based in a 0.5% increase in the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere, predicts an increase of up to 2 °C in the Earth's average temperature; in the pessimistic scenario, based on a 1% increase in the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere, temperature increase may reach 4 °C. Using these parameters, the occurrence points of the studied species registered in literature, the Genetic Algorithm for Rule-set Predictions/GARP and Maximum entropy modeling of species geographic distributions/MaxEnt we developed models of present and future possible occurrence of each species, considering Earth's mean temperature by 2050 with the optimistic and the pessimistic scenarios of CO2 emission. The results obtained show an alarming reduction in the area of possible occurrence of the species studied, as well as a shift towards southern areas of Brazil. Using GARP, on average, in the optimistic scenario this reduction is of 25% while in the pessimistic scenario it reaches 50%, and the species that will suffer the worst reduction in their possible area of occurrence are: Euterpe edulis, Mollinedia schottiana, Virola bicuhyba, Inga sessilis and Vochysia magnifica. Using MaxEnt, on average, in the optimistic scenario the reduction will be of 20% while in the pessimistic scenario it reaches 30%, and the species that will suffer the worst reduction are: Hyeronima alchorneoides, Schefflera angustissima, Andira fraxinifolia and the species of Myrtaceae studied.703 SUPPL.697708Almeida, F.F.M., Carneiro, C.D.R., Origem e evolução da Serra do Mar (1998) Revista Brasileira de Geociências, 28 (2), pp. 135-150Behling, H., Negrelle, R.R.B., Late Quaternary tropical rain forest and climate dynamics from the Atlantic lowland in southern Brazil (2001) Quaternary Research, 56, pp. 87-101Brow Jr., K.S., Conclusion, synthesis and alternative hypotheses (1987) Biogeography and Quartenary history in Tropical America, pp. 175-196. , In WHITMORE, TC. and PRANCE, GT.

Floristic And Structural Differences, Between Two Altitudinal Quotas, Of The Submontane Atlantic Rainforest Within The Serra Do Mar State Park, Municipality Of Ubatuba/sp, Brazil [diferenças Florísticas E Estruturais Entre Duas Cotas Altiduninais Da Floresta Ombrófila Densa Submontana Atlântica, Do Parque Estadual Da Serra Do Mar, Município De Ubatuba/sp, Brasil]
No full textThis study presents a comparative analyzes of two areas of Atlantic Rain Forest, in the municipality of Ubatuba (SP), Brazil, and tests the hypothesis that floristic composition and phytosociological structure change along an altitudinal gradient. Two 1-ha plots were installed, respectively, at 190 (PLOT G) and 350 m (PLOT I) above see level, and within these plots all individuals with DBH ≥ 4.8 cm were sampled, measured and identified. In total we found 252 species, belonging to 134 genera and 53 families, diversity H' of 4.425 nats/individual, and 103 species (41% of total) common to both plots. But, among the 10 top species in Absolute Dominance only two: Cryptocarya mandioccana and Sloanea guianensis were found in both plots. In PLOT G we found 1496 individuals distributed in 152 species, 101 genera and 41 families, with H' = 3.961 nats/individual and 48 exclusive species (32%). In PLOT I we found 1993 individuals distributed in 203 species, 111 genera, 50 families, with H' = 4.339 nats/individual and 100 exclusive species (49%). Supporting our hypothesis, the comparative analyzes showed that there are significant differences in density (p < 0.01, t = 7.10), richness (p < 0.01, t = 7.76) and volume (p = 0.02, t = 2.44), between the two sampled areas. The pattern here observed shows that the plot installed closer to the middle of the Serra do Mar slope (350 m) presented a higher number of individuals, higher richness and higher scores of volume, when compared to that closer to the base of the slope (190 m).112123137Aiba, S., Kitayama, K., Structure, Composition And Species Diversity In An Altitude Substrate Matrix Of Rain Forest Tree Communities On Mount Kinabalu, Borneo (1999) Plant Ecol, 140 (2), pp. 139-157. , Http://Dx.Doi.Org/10.1023/A:1009710618040Aiba, S., Kitayama, K., Takyu, M., Habitat Associations With Topography And Canopy Structure Of Tree Species In A Montane Forest On Mount Kinabalu (2004) Borneo.

Skeleton-based design and simulation flow for Computation-in-Memory architectures
No full textMemristor-based Computation-in-Memory is one of the emerging architectures proposed to deal with Big Data problems. The design of such architectures requires a radically new automatic design flow because the memristor is a passive device that uses resistance to encode its logic value. This paper proposes a design flow for mapping parallel algorithms on the CIM architecture. Algorithms with similar data flow graphs can be mapped on the crossbar using the same template containing scheduling, placement, and routing information; this template is named skeleton. By configuring such a skeleton with different pre-designed circuits, we can build CIM implementations of the corresponding algorithms in that class. This approach does not only map an algorithm on a memristor crossbar, but also gives an estimation of its performance, area, and energy consumption. It also supports user-defined constraints and parallel SystemC simulation. Experimental results demonstrate the feasibility and the potential of the approach.Accepted Author ManuscriptComputer EngineeringQuantum & Computer EngineeringFTQC/Bertels La
Thoughts about cancer stem cells in solid tumors
No full textCancer chemotherapy efficacy is frequently impaired by either intrinsic or acquired tumor resistance. A fundamental problem in cancer research is identifying the cell type that is capable of sustaining neoplastic growth and its origin from normal tissue cells. In recent years, the cancer stem cell (CSC) theory has changed the classical view of tumor growth and therefore the therapeutic perspective. Overcoming intrinsic and acquired resistance of cancer stem/progenitor cells to current clinical treatments represents a major challenge in treating and curing the most aggressive and metastatic cancers. On the other hand, the identification of CSCs in vivo and in vitro relies on specific surface markers that should allow the sorting cancer cells into phenotypically distinct subpopulations. In the present review, recent papers published on CSCs in solid tumors (breast, prostate, brain and melanoma) are discussed, highlighting critical points such as the choice of markers to sort CSCs and mouse models to demonstrate that CSCs are able to replicate the original tumor. A discussion of the possible role of aldehyde dehydrogenase and CXCR6 biomarkers as signaling molecules in CSCs and normal stem cells is also discussed. The author believes that efforts have to be made to investigate the functional and biological properties of putative CSCs in cancer. Developing diagnostic/prognostic tools to follow cancer development is also a challenge. In this connection it would be useful to develop a multidisciplinary approach combining mathematics, physics and biology which merges experimental approaches and theory. Biological models alone are probably unable to resolve the problem completely
