Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi (AMF) form symbiotic associations with the roots of most vascular plants, helping to absorb water and nutrients. The objective of this work was to evaluate the occurrence of these fungi in three agroforestry systems and in an area of the Manaus Oil Refinery.

O refinamento global do registro de nuvens de pontos 3D é um problema constante para sensores que necessitam registrar múltiplos pares de nuvens de pontos 3D, uma vez que erros de deriva são gerados resultando em desalinhamentos angulares entre a posição real e a calculada pelo sensor. No tratamento destes erros, lugares revisitados são utilizados para correções globais na trajetória. Todavia, os modelos de correção disponíveis são iterativos e dependentes de parâmetros de transformação iniciais.
