“…The region has 14,003 seed plant species already cataloged, of which 6,727 are tree species (D. Cardoso et al, 2017;Fine et al, 2004;Ter Steege et al, 2015). In addition, the region is home to approximately 425 species of mammals-which constitutes one-third of South America's 1,260 mammal species (Bonvicino & Weksler, 2012)-1,300 birds, 427 amphibians, and around 2,406 species of fish (Table 2) (J. M. C. da Silva et al, 2005;Junk et al, 2007;Zapata-Ríos et al, 2021). In the northwest and central Amazon, 1 ha may hold more than 300 different species of plants (Amaral et al, 2000;Gentry, 1988).…”

“…Some areas of traditional knowledge include food production, medicinal applications, and fire management methods, among others. For example, collection of Brazil nuts ( B. excelsa ) for traditional communities depends on knowledge of practices transferred between generations regarding storage, consumption, and even commercialization (Barbosa & Moret, 2016; T. P. da Silva et al., 2020). The same is true for products with high commercial value, such as wood, cocoa ( Theobroma cacao L.), and açaí ( E. oleracea Mart.)…”

“…Many traditional communities have explored nature in a sustainable manner for millennia, through which they transfer knowledge, habits, and beliefs and reaffirm their identities and forms of social organization (Diegues, 2019; T.

Tropical forests are key habitats for diverse organisms, and because of their wide global distribution, rich biodiversity, and long history of human use, they are also essential for providing a wide range of ecosystem services (ESs;Brandon, 2015; Brockerhoff et al., 2017;Gibson et al., 2011;Mori et al., 2017). Considerable attention has been devoted to tropical forests and their role as a natural climate solution for mitigating climate change. It is estimated that about 30% of all CO 2 emitted by human activities is removed from the atmosphere by these forests (Le Quéré et al., 2018). The important role of tropical forests as a carbon sink and stock has historically guided conservation pacts, programs, and policies for establishing targets associated with carbon storage and climate change mitigation. This role was important in developing several articles of the 1997 Kyoto Protocol (Swingland et al., 2002) and explicit policies for reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation through the REDD+ agreement (Pistorius, 2012). Several countries also set ambitious goals for restoring forests to reduce emissions or sequester carbon in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change 2015 Paris Agreement. The land use, land cover change, and forestry (LULCCF) sector is included in many countries' first nationally determined contributions (NDCs) but with differing levels of specificity. Assuming full implementation of NDCs, Grassi et al. (2017) show that land use-and forests, in particular-emerges as a key component of the Paris Agreement: global land use will turn from a net anthropogenic source during 1990-2010 (1.3 ± 1.1 Gt CO 2 e yr −1 ) to a net sink of carbon by 2030 (up to −1.1 ± 0.5 Gt CO 2 e yr −1 ) and would provide a quarter of countries' planned emission reductions. Two tropical countries stand out regarding the magnitude of the LULCCF contribution: Brazil set ambitious goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 43% by 2030 with

“…In relation to exports, in 2015, Brazil exported the equivalent of US $ 41.56 million in Brazil nuts. However, in 2017, the export revenue was only US $ 11.96 million, the lowest value since 2009 (Formigoni, 2018;Da Silva et al, 2020). It also shows high levels of proteins, amino acids, flavonoids, phenolic compounds (De Brito et al, 2019) and high selenium levels (Kluczkovski et al, 2015).…”

Morfometria de Frutos e Sementes de Populações de Castanha-do-Pará (Bertholletia excelsa Humb. Bonpl.: Lecythidaceae) no Sudeste do Pará como Parâmetro de Variação Fenotípica

A castanha-do-Brasil (Bertholletia excelsa Humb. Bonpl., Lecythidaceae) é uma espécie nativa amazônica protegida por lei no Brasil, classificada como vulnerável em termos de risco de extinção, e bastante explorada por extrativistas. O objetivo deste trabalho consistiu em avaliar a diversidade fenotípica de diferentes populações de Bertholletia excelsa por meio da morfometria dos frutos e sementes. Foram avaliados um total de 60 frutos provenientes de três populações localizadas em três áreas do sudeste do Pará: Floresta Nacional do Tapirapé-Aquiri (FLONATA), Floresta Nacional de Carajás (FLONACA) e Fazenda Sousa (FAZENDA). As variáveis mensuradas foram: número de sementes por fruto (NS), peso do fruto (PF), comprimento do fruto (CP), largura do fruto (LF), diâmetro do opérculo (DO), peso da semente (PS), comprimento da semente (CS), largura da semente (LS) e espessura da semente (ES). Elas foram testadas quanto à normalidade (Shapiro-Wilk) e homocedasticidade (Bartlett) e, posteriormente, submetidas a um teste de variância (ANOVA). Foi realizado teste de comparação de média (Tuckey) e análise multivariada (PCA) para avaliar as relações entre as variáveis morfométricas com as diferentes áreas de coleta. As análises evidenciaram a formação de três grupos correspondentes (FLONATA, FLONACA e FAZENDA), sendo que a primeira se destaca por apresentar mensurações médias superiores para a maioria das variáveis testadas e diferir significativamente das outras duas, e que estas não diferem entre si. Tais respostas evidenciam maiores variações fenotípicas em populações que ocorrem em ambientes com condições edafoclimáticas distintas evidenciando a importância de se considerarem os fatores exógenos além dos fatores endógenos.

Brazil nut tree (Bertholletia excelsa Bonpl) management, is a traditional activity that plays a key role in the economy of forestbased Amazon communities and in the conservation of forests. Nevertheless, some threats and critical points related to sustainability indicate to the need for establishment of monitoring procedures that can assist in the management of this natural resource. The overall aim of the research was to evaluate the MESMIS method as a tool to support the participatory definition of sustainability indicators to monitor Brazil nut management, and the viability of Brazil nut harvest over time. For that, we carried out a case study in the Porvir Community, RESEX Chico Mendes, Acre State (Brazil), aiming to integrate the perceptions of Brazil nut harvesters, researchers, managers, and technicians to define the indicators. The result was the generation of 18 strategic indicators to assess sustainability in the environmental, technical-economic and social dimensions. Assessment parameters, representing conditions that must be achieved for system sustainability, were collectively defined for each indicator. The main critical values attributed in the evaluation of the indicators are related to Brazil nut commercialization to intermediaries and oscillation in the annual fruit production. The use of the MESMIS method was considered appropriate to the studied context and can be recommended to similar non-timber forest product management systems.
