The diversity of themes of the five winning studies in the 2nd edition of the MapBiomas Prize, a partnership between MapBiomas and Instituto Escolhas, sums up the wide variety of the 98 entries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the increase in the number of entries - more than triple that of the first edition - the large participation of young scientists caught the attention of the organizers. \"Of the entries received, 72% were from young people under the age of 30,\" said MapBiomas' scientific coordinator, Julia Shimbo, at the awards ceremony on Tuesday (16\/06). Because of the Covid-19 pandemic, the event was held online, with streaming on&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/zf4yLNxiQqI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MapBiomas Youtube channel<\/a>. Shimbo also highlighted the fact that 78% of the entries came from academia (research institutions, universities and technical institutes).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-embed-handler wp-block-embed-embed-handler wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Cerim\u00f4nia de premia\u00e7\u00e3o da 2\u00aa Edi\u00e7\u00e3o do Pr\u00eamio MapBiomas\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zf4yLNxiQqI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Professor Mercedes Bustamante, from the University of Brasilia (UnB), welcomed the many papers submitted by young scientists. In a forceful speech, she said that society needs \"scientists with strong voices\". \"It is very important that we have a generation of scientists who are able to give strength to information through their voices, through their work, who can act as what we call voices of authority; be impartial, be able to explain where the uncertainties are in the evidence and what the possible consequences of future alternatives are,\" she said<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the UnB professor, the MapBiomas Award reflects two fundamental values present in the MapBiomas project, which was born in 2015: \"openness and transparency in the data\". \"Because they allow this data to be re-analyzed, synthesized into other studies, which is exactly what the Award shows,\" said Bustamante. In addition to the importance of an award like this in encouraging science, Bustamante spoke about the recognition for researchers' careers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is how Livia dos Santos Abdalla (FIOCRUZ\/IME) received first place in the General Category: \"The Mapbiomas award is one of the greatest recognitions of my academic career. It is an injection of encouragement for me to continue dedicating and integrating personal and professional efforts to produce research applied to the social and environmental problems that are urgent in our country.\" His research used thousands of attributes, including land use data from MapBiomas, in a model to predict the emergence of sylvatic yellow fever in Brazil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The technical coordinator of MapBiomas, Marcos Rosa, praised the winning work, highlighting the moment we are living in. \"Epidemics are predicted and fought with science and knowledge. We are in the midst of a crisis and it is through science that we will achieve the best results in combating the pandemic we are now experiencing,\" he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>VISIBILITY AND CREDIBILITY OF RESEARCH.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The winner of the Youth Category, Jo\u00e3o Pedro Gra\u00e7a Melo Vieira (PUC-Rio), said that the MapBiomas Award contributes \"not only by encouraging research directly, but by giving it visibility and credibility\". \"This is something that is sorely lacking in Brazil today in general, but which is even more complicated for young people, because there aren't so many spaces and a consolidated incentive structure. Looking around at my fellow students, I can see that there is plenty of capacity and ideas to produce and take part in awards like this, if they existed in their areas of interest,\" he said. In his research, he analyzed whether policies to combat deforestation in the Amazon have in fact reduced the loss of native vegetation or merely shifted this loss to another biome, the Cerrado.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Promoting the MapBiomas platform, with its free and public data, is also an objective of the award. \"The award is important for promoting the platform's data. The dissemination of my honorable mention reached many research groups that can benefit from this data. The platform should be widely disseminated because of the quality of the time series data and especially because this information is public,\" said Mateus Camana (UFRGS), who received an Honorable Mention in the General Category, with a paper on the impact of land use on stream fish communities in southern Brazil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The volume of entries and the quality of the winners' presentations showed that the 2nd edition of the MapBiomas Award achieved its objectives. \"We are a network that produces primary data to be used by others. That's why we came up with the idea of the MapBiomas Award. It's an opportunity to stimulate and recognize the work of those who, using this data and information on land cover and land use in Brazil and its evolution, generate science, knowledge and research for better management of Brazil's natural resources,\" said the general coordinator of MapBiomas, Tasso Azevedo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">THE WINNERS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>General Category<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>1st Place: Livia dos Santos Abdalla (FIOCRUZ\/IME) -<\/strong>&nbsp;<em>Data-driven modeling for predicting the emergence of zoonoses: a case study of wild Yellow Fever in Brazil.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-embed-handler wp-block-embed-embed-handler wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Modelagem para previs\u00e3o da emerg\u00eancia de zoonoses: um estudo de caso da Febre Amarela silvestre\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/QZEzqbayNB0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2nd Place: Thomas P\u00fcttker et al (UNIFESP) -<\/strong>&nbsp;<em>Indirect effects of habitat loss via habitat fragmentation: a cross-taxa analysis of forest-dependent species<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-embed-handler wp-block-embed-embed-handler wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Os efeitos da perda e da fragmenta\u00e7\u00e3o da mata sobre o n\u00famero de esp\u00e9cies na Mata Atl\u00e2ntica\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-kzN76wugcU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Honorable Mention: Mateus Camana et al (UFRGS) -<\/strong>&nbsp;<em>Assessing the legacy of land use trajectories on stream fish communities in southern Brazil.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-embed-handler wp-block-embed-embed-handler wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Como as comunidades de peixes de riacho respondem ao uso da terra no passado e no presente\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hr21sQ1PEks?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Young Category<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1st Place: Jo\u00e3o Pedro Gra\u00e7a Melo Vieira (PUC-Rio) -<\/strong>&nbsp;<em>Curbing or Displacing Deforestation?
