K. de aThe flood pulse concept and its relation to fish biology in the Pantanal. c2004 aThe main challenge for sustainable use of the Pantanal means that we need to understand the main ecological process that makes Pantanal to work. This is the flood pulse concept thought by Junk et al., (1989), "the principal driving force responsible for the existence, productivity and interactions of the major biota in river-floodplain systems is the flood pulse"; a predictable pulse of long duration engenders organismic adaptations and strategies that efficiently utilize attributes of the aquatic/terrestrial transition zone". aPantanal aBiologia aInundação aPeixe aFish biology aFlood pulse concept tIn: INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS ON THE BIOLOGY OF FISH, 6., 2004, Manaus-AM.
