		On the one hand, IBGE has greater internal capability to make such corrections than data users, while on the other hand the time necessary to make such corrections is substantial and can meet with resistance in the academic community who desire access to data sets spared of imputations and associated prior assumptions.

		According to IBGE's new actuary tables, life expectancy at the moment of birth has now reached 71 years.
		This is because IBGE was updating a table published in 1991.” This time, Conde said, IBGE based the actuarial tables for life expectancy on the 2000 census, which saw substantial increases in life expectancy for all age ranges.
		Also in keeping with these actuarial facts, the average increase in Brazilian's life expectancy of 2 years and 8 months is going to exert a downward pressure on initial retirement benefits for the covered beneficiary, no matter his or her age or the basis for calculating total contributions.

	Terrestrial Ecoregions -- Pernambuco interior forests (NT0152)
		The climate is tropical with an annual rainfall around 1,250 to 1,750 mm and a dry period from October through March (IBGE 1985).
		Tropical nutrient-impoverished soils (yellow-red latosol, podzols and lithosols) are dominant (IBGE 1985).
		Much of the current vegetation has been converted to agriculture, so linework for this ecoregion was derived from IBGE (1993) to estimate historic ranges by following their classification of "seasonal semideciduous forest: secondary vegetation and agricultural activity" and "seasonal forest — savanna transition" in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil.
