The Brazilian Amazon's growing integration into global finance networks and international agricultural supply chains has all but accelerated that frontierization.
“The Brazilian Amazon's growing integration into global finance networks and international agricultural supply chains has all but accelerated that frontierization (Ferrante et al., 2021).”

The impacts of large infrastructure projects on illegal deforestation and encroachment are usually magnified by the creation of auxiliary clandestine roads.
“First, large infrastructure projects such as interstate highways (e.g., BR-163, BR-319) have been a major driver of illegal deforestation and encroachment on protected areas, their impacts being usually magnified by the creation of auxiliary clandestine roads (Ferrante et al., 2021;Neves et al., 2021;Araujo et al., 2025).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
