Land use and regulating ecosystem services scenarios for the Brazilian Pantanal and its surroundings under different storylines of future regional development

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.
The future of the Pantanal holds great promise if better laws, public policies, and socio‐ecological transitions are adopted. Here, we present future scenarios comparing these choices for the coming decades Abstract The Pantanal, the largest worldwide continuous wetland, is considered a global hotspot of ecosystem services.

Scientists' warning on the need for greater inclusion of dragonflies in global conservation

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 4, Page 465-484, July 2025.
Stressors to dragonflies are multiple, and in many cases interactive. Specialist species are at risk, while generalists can benefit from some human activities. Dragonflies are sentinels for conservation, being promising surrogates for other taxa while also being appealing to citizen science initiatives.

Gaps and spatial trends in the accurate data available on mosquitoes (Diptera, Culicidae) in Brazil: Inventory completeness and priority areas Lacunas e tendências espaciais nos dados precisos disponíveis sobre mosquitos (Diptera, Culicidae) no Brasil: Cobertura dos inventários e áreas prioritárias

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 4, Page 526-544, July 2025.
We compiled primary occurrence data for Culicidae in Brazil and our findings showed limitations in the spatial and temporal coverage of digital Culicidae data compared with the literature occurrence data. The Atlantic and Amazon Forests presented well‐surveyed inventories in Brazil's north and southeast. However, the distribution of occurrences reveals

Adaptive Grazing of Native Grasslands Provides Ecosystem Services and Reduces Economic Instability for Livestock Systems in the Flooding Pampa, Argentina

There is a widespread concern about the negative impact of intensive livestock farming on climate change and biodiversity loss. We analyzed the trade-off between meat production and environmental variables related to global warming—energy ...

Floristic changes induced by flooding on grazed and ungrazed lowland grasslands in Argentina

, 1988
Changes in community composition of 2 grassland sites exposed to a flood of unusual intensity and duration were investigated in the Flooding Pampa. These grasslands are subject almost annually to floodings of lesser magnitude.

Producción de biomasa y respuesta a la fertilización de especies forrajeras subtropicales cultivadas en La Pampa deprimida bonaerense [PDF]

, 2016
Resumen: La producción estival de biomasa forrajera de La Pampa deprimida bonaerense resulta muchas veces deficitaria para la alimentación del ganado. Una alternativa para incrementarla es cultivar especies perennes de origen subtropical.

Flooding, topography, and successional age as determinants of species diversity in old-field vegetation

, 1996
We studied the spatial pattern of plant richness and diversity along topographic gradients in two pairs of plots with 3 and 4 versus 9 and 10 years of abandonment from cultivation, in the Inland Pampa of Argentina. Vegetation in each plot was sampled for

Characterization of Landscape Structures and Precipitation in relation to Flooding events in Pampa Deprimida : A Minor Field Study in Argentina

, 2023
The purpose of the thesis is to characterize flood events within the agricultural fields of flooding Pampa in Argentina. The characterization divides the flat landscape into flood prone areas and endeavour at linking driving factors to flood response ...
