This study developed a topoclimatic zoning framework to evaluate the conservation and agroforestry potential of three native species: Carapa guia- nensis (Andiroba), Dipteryx odorata (Cumaru), and Bertholletia excelsa (Amazon Nut). The hypothesis was that integrating topographic and climatic data can effectively identify high-potential areas for these species to support forest restoration and sustainable man- agement. This study applied ecological modeling and Geographic Information System (GIS) tools to classify zones into high, medium, and low potential for each species. Results showed Carapa guianensis has high potential in 64% of anthropized areas, Dipteryx odorata in 72% of the Legal Amazon, and Bertholletia excelsa in 58%, highlighting their adaptability and strategic value for restoration efforts. The findings emphasize the importance of top- oclimatic zoning as a tool for conservation and sustainable use strategies. By aligning with Brazil’s Payment for Environmental Services (PES) Law, this approach can foster agrofor- estry practices, enhance biodiversity conservation, and strengthen the Amazon bioecon- omy, ensuring ecological resilience and sustainable development.

Introduction Ecosystem dynamics are shaped by interactions between abiotic factors and organ- isms, with climate as a key regulator. Phenological responses are influenced by specific environmental conditions [1], driven by genotype-environment interactions.
