    Nitrogen and phosphorus additions negatively affect tree species diversity tropical forest regrowth trajectories.

    Nutrient enrichment is increasingly affecting many tropical ecosystems, but there is no information on how this affects tree biodiversity. To examine dynamics in vegetation structure and tree species biomass and diversity, we annually remeasured tree species before and for six years after repeated additions of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in permanent plots of abandoned pasture in Amazonia. Nitrogen and, to a lesser extent, phosphorus addition shifted growth among woody species. Nitrogen stimulated growth of two common pioneer tree species and one common tree species adaptable to both high- and lowlight environments, while P stimulated growth only of the dominant pioneer tree Rollinia exsucca (Annonaceae). Overall, N or P addition reduced tree assemblage evenness and delayed tree species accrual over time, likely due to competitive monopolization of other resources by the few tree species responding to nutrient enrichment with enhanced establishment and/or growth rates. Absolute tree growth rates were elevated for two years after nutrient addition. However, nutrient-induced shifts in relative tree species growth and reduced assemblage evenness persisted for more than three years after nutrient addition, favoring two nutrientresponsive pioneers and one early-secondary tree species. Surprisingly, N þ P effects on tree biomass and species diversity were consistently weaker than N-only and P-only effects, because grass biomass increased dramatically in response to N þ P addition. The resulting intensi?ed competition probably prevented an expected positive N þ P synergy in the tree assemblage. Thus, N or P enrichment may favor unknown tree functional response types, reduce the diversity of coexisting species, and delay species accrual during structurally and functionally complex tropical rainforest secondary succession

    Um levantamento das especies de parasitoides de ovos de pentatomideos presentes na soja foi realizado em Planaltina, DF. Doze especies de parasitoides de ovos (Telenomus edessae Fabricius, Telenomus podisi Ashmead, Telenomus sp.; Trissolcus basalis (Wollaston), Trissolcus brochymenae Ashmead, Trissolcus sp., Trissolcus teretis Johnson, Trissolcus urichi Crawford; Anastatus auriceps Ashmead, Eupelmus sp., Ooencyrtus sp. e Neorileya sp.) foram encontradas em sete especies de percevejos em soja: Acrosternum aseadum Rolston, Edessa meditabunda (Fabricius), Euschistus heros (Fabricius), Nezara viridula Linnaeus, Piezodorus guildinii (Westwood), Podisus nigrispinus (Dallas) e Thyanta perditor (Fabricius). Registrando-se, pela primeira vez, a ocorrencia de novos hospedeiros de A.auriceps (A.aseadum); T. teretis (E.heros e T.perditor); T.urichi (A.aseadum, P.guildinii e P.nigrispinus)

    Thin Domain Walls in Lyra Geometry

    Get PDF
    This paper studies thin domain walls within the frame work of Lyra Geometry. We have considered two models. First one is the thin domain wall with negligible pressures perpendicular and transverse direction to the wall and secondly, we take a particular type of thin domain wall where the pressure in the perpendicular direction is negligible but transverse pressures are existed. It is shown that the thin domain walls have no particle horizon and the gravitational force due to them is attractive.Comment: 8 pages, typos are corrected, published Astrophysics and Space Sciences 305, 337 (2006

    Development and acceptability of a brief, evidence-based Dementia Awareness for Caregivers course in low- and middle-income countries

    BACKGROUND: Knowledge of and attitudes towards dementia vary across countries, and for caregivers in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), access to information can be challenging. There is an urgent need for brief, easily accessible and culturally appropriate educational courses for caregivers of persons with dementia, providing much needed information whilst addressing important psychological concepts such as stigma. METHODS: An international and multidisciplinary team developed Dementia Awareness for Caregivers (DAC) courses in four stages: (1) scoping review and module agreement, (2) development of an International template (DAC-International) containing a standardised process for adding information, (3) development of local DACs using a standardised format and (4) acceptability of courses in Brazil, India and Tanzania. FINDINGS: The DAC-International was developed, comprising three modules: 'What is dementia?'; 'Positive engagement' and 'Caring for someone with dementia'. Three local versions were developed from this (DAC-Brazil, DAC-India and DAC-Tanzania), where additions of country-specific information included prevalent stereotypes and the addition of culturally relevant case studies. An initial field test was conducted in each country (n = 85), which indicated acceptability to participants. CONCLUSIONS: The methods used here resulted in culturally valid and acceptable educational courses for carers of people with dementia. Future work will consist of large-scale, formal evaluations and the development of additional local courses

    Atuação do enfermeiro na educação sexual na adolescência no contexto escolar / Nurse's performance in sexual education in adolescence in the school context

    Este estudo pretende compartilhar conhecimentos sobre uma fase de grande complexidade do desenvolvimento humano, a adolescência. Descreve-se a atuação do profissional da enfermagem ao trabalhar à sexualidade na adolescência no contexto escolar. Justamente nesse contexto que a atuação do enfermeiro do Programa Saúde na Escola (PSE) é suma importância, através de um trabalho de orientação sexual é possível orientar os adolescentes a uma reflexão sobre a vida sexual e risco de uma gravidez precoce. O presente estudo trata-se de uma revisão descritiva construída a partir das publicações sobre a atuação do enfermeiro na educação sexual na adolescência no contexto escolar, artigos publicados principalmente, entre os anos de 2007 e 2020. Conclui-se neste estudo que do enfermeiro do PSE deve destinar alta atenção à saúde sexual, levando-se em conta, orientações básicas sobre sexualidade humana, articulando também outros temas que se relacionam e fazem parte desta fase da adolescência.
