Producing a Red List of Ecosystems for the Brazilian Cerrado
Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.Land clearance is a key driver of biodiversity loss. This is a particular issue in the Brazilian Cerrado, the world's most biodiverse savanna biome and a region experiencing the rapid expansion of agriculture. By using the Red List of Ecosystems as an international standard, we provide the first globally comparable analysis of the state of the Cerrado,
