Long-term loss in extent and current protection of terrestrial ecosystem diversity in the temperate and tropical Americas. by Patrick J Comer, Jon C Hak, Carmen Josse, Regan Smyth

“…We utilized a hierarchical classification to describe and map natural ecosystem types at six levels of thematic detail, with lower thematic levels defining more units each with narrower floristic range than upper levels. Current land use/land cover was derived using available global data on human land use intensity and combined with the potential distribution maps to estimate long-term change in extent for each ecosystem type. …”

Relationships between soil properties and species establishment in the restoration of mined soils in the Cerrado biome. by Daniel Alves Vieira, Thalles Oliveira Martins, Renan Augusto Miranda Matias, Pedro Henrique Fernandes Silva, Marco Bruno Xavier Valadão, Pedro Vilela Gondim Barbosa, Alcides Gatto, José Roberto Rodrigues Pinto, Angela Pereira Bussinguer, Fabiana Piontekowski Ribeiro

“…Restoring the ecosystems of the Cerrado biome is challenging considering the diversity of phytophysiognomies present in the biome, some of which are composed of species from different strata (herbaceous, shrubby, and arboreal), which increases the complexity of restructuring the floristic composition. Other factors was involved, such as soil quality, which directly influences the success of restoration, water storage, and nutrients, the financial costs, and a slow ecological process, due to the adverse circumstances found in the area. be restored. …”
