Resumen

La actual crisis de biodiversidad ha generado una creciente demanda de información sobre el estado y las tendencias de la biodiversidad, especialmente en regiones megadiversas como los trópicos, donde hay falta de datos. En vista de esto, el gobierno brasileño desarrolló el Programa Nacional de Monitoreo de la Biodiversidad – Programa Monitor, un programa de largo plazo destinado a monitorear el estado de la biodiversidad y los servicios ecosistémicos en las unidades de conservación (UCs) federales. En este estudio, utilizamos una serie temporal de nueve años (2014-2022) de datos de 22 UC en Amazonía brasileña para evaluar tendencias en 167 poblaciones de aves y mamíferos terrestres de tamaño mediano y grande, así como tendencias agregadas en biodiversidad, utilizando la media geométrica de las abundancias relativas de estas poblaciones como índice de biodiversidad. Encontramos estabilidad, disminución y aumento para el 92%, 6.5% y 0.6% de las poblaciones analizadas, respectivamente. No encontramos diferencias entre las tasas de crecimiento poblacional de aves y mamíferos, ni entre poblaciones ubicadas en UCs de estricta protección y uso sustentable. La media geométrica de las abundancias relativas se mantuvo estable durante el período muestreado. Los resultados sugieren que, en general, las UCs monitoreadas han sido efectivas para la conservación de las poblaciones objetivo del programa, aunque algunas poblaciones han sufrido disminuciones importantes, lo que genera alerta. En un futuro próximo, las series temporales serán cada vez más largas y cada vez más UCs y poblaciones serán elegibles para el análisis. Por lo tanto, la continuidad del programa es esencial para garantizar resultados más sólidos.
