Abstract:
Rivers in the Amazon have among the greatest biodiversity in the world. The Xingu River, one of the tributaries of the Amazon River, has a length of 1640 km, draining 510,000 km2 in one of the most protected regions on the planet. The Middle Xingu region in Brazil has been highly impacted by mining and livestock farming, leading to habitat fragmentation due to altered water quality. Therefore, comparing two rivers (the preserved Xingu River and the impacted Fresco River) and their confluence, the aims of the present study were to (1) assess the land uses in the hydrographic basin; (2) determin

This study investigates the geochemical characteristics and evolutionary implications of sediments at the confluence of the Xingu and Amazon Rivers. The main objective is to understand sediment mixing, mobility, and weathering processes through geochemical proxies. Samples were collected from various sections of the lower Xingu River, focusing on its interaction with the Amazon River. Analytical techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) were employed to analyze major and trace elements.

Abstract The zooplankton community of the lower Xingu River shows strong fluctuations in species richness and number of organisms during periods of water level fluctuation.

The spatial heterogeneity of the lower Xingu River consisting of braided channels, bedrocks, macrophyte stands, is probably a relevant factor for the species richness of the zooplankton communities, and may be a fundamental factor for the overall aquatic b

Abstract. The Xingu River is a large clearwater river in eastern Amazonia and its downstream sector, known as the Volta Grande do Xingu ("Xingu Great Bend"), is a unique fluvial landscape that plays an important role in the biodiversity, biogeochemistry and prehistoric and historic peopling of Amazonia. The sedimentary dynamics of the Xingu River in the Volta Grande and its downstream sector will be shifted in the next few years due to the construction of dams associated with the Belo Monte hydropower project.

Abstract:
Knowledge about the extent of river bed overflow is extremely necessary for the determination of areas at risk. The City of Altamira-PA, located on the banks of the Xingu River, historically suffers from extreme events of floods that provoke floods, causing great damages to the population. Considering the problem, this paper presents a monthly level prediction system of the Xingu River based on neural networks perceptron of multiple layers. For the development of the system, precipitacion data were used in the basin and sub-basins of the Xingu River, and SST information (Sea Surface Temperatur

Abstract:
Extreme hydrological events and lack of urban planning can generate climate-related disasters. Several fields of study, including artificial intelligence, contribute to mitigate this problem and develop preventive solutions. This study focuses on flood forecasting the Xingu River using time series data. The main approach is to standardize the pure data from different stations using quantiles, and thus generate recurrence plots for the time series and then transform them into two-dimensional representations to be applied in the convolutional neural network model. The combination of recurrence p
