Ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) promotes conservation while alleviating poverty and removing GHG.

EbA is a policy mix that integrates development and environmental policies.

It triggers adaptive transition, a key step towards sustainability transitions.

Conservation science can boost EbA by looking into coupled human-natural systems.

Brazil´s policy setting favors what is possibly the planet´s largest EbA program.

Leaf phenology monitoring using digital cameras in tropical vegetation.

Digital images can track temporal changes in the vegetation structure.

Phenocams are potential tools for conservation biology.

Phenocams for tropical phenology monitoring are a promising research field in Brazil.

Robust information on biodiversity patterns and trends is important for public policies for nature conservation and sustainable development.

Current Brazilian policy of cuts in science puts research programs and long term monitoring of biodiversity at risk.

Reduced spending will have long-term negative impacts on capacity building in science and technology.

Cuts will reduce Brazil's capability to predict, mitigate negative impacts of, and adapt to global environmental changes.

Cuts will result in less effective and efficient conservation strategies, threatening ecosystem services and human well-being, and in failure to reach the National Targets for Biodiversity 2011–2020.

Land changes can hinder landscape-level pollination through bee species loss.

Bees were more diverse at functionally connected and highly heterogeneous landscapes.

We propose non-linear effects of heterogeneity and functional connectivity on bees.

Proper landscape-level bee pollination needs interspersed high quality environments.

Populations of five species and a jaguar breeding program have been established.

High quality communication and learning from animals responses are lessons learned.

Importance of suitable habitat, long-term commitment and solid and flexible teams.

Iberá Rewilding Program represents a model for proactive conservation in the Americas.

We assessed the effects of mining on the distribution of mountaintop species.

Mining impacts more than 40% of the suitable habitat for 13 bird and anuran species.

Mining impacts areas estimated suitable for high richness of anuran and bird species.

Community-based conservation programs can be an effective tool to promote conservation.

Enforced hunting guidelines comprise a critical step in establishing conservation strategies.

Spatial zoning of harvest areas can become a window of opportunity to conserve iconic species.

Chronology of extractive industry and multi-stakeholder initiatives in indigenous peoples’ territories.

Focus on corporate responsibility to respect indigenous peoples’ right to give or withhold consent.

Case studies involving ICMM member companies and the application of FPIC standard.

Implementation of FPIC standard fundamental in altering predominant devastating model of mining.

Indigenous peoples’ right to FPIC is the desired standard to protect indigenous rights.
