Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Referred to INPA website (http://www.inpa.gov.br/) as well as Rutger's "International Research Initiative" website (http://www.rci.rutgers.edu/~struwe/INPA/INPA.html) for more information about the Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Da Amazônia (INPA). INPA is composed of three separate campuses within Manaus, as well as three forest reserves, two biological reserves, two floating research bases, and one floating laboratory. Because there are multiple locations, unable to pinpoint exact coordinates of "INPA Campus" in locality description. Instead, georeferenced to the geographic center of Aleixo, Manaus. Using Google Maps, located Aleixo section of Manaus. Used measurement tool to measure total extent of the area, then approximated the geographic center. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates. Used linear extent as uncertainty radius.)
