Some plant species will "win" and others will "lose" as global warming forces them to move uphill, new research shows.
Scientists examined the current range of more than 7,000 plant species in Brazil's Cerrado savanna, and estimated shifts based on warming by 2040.
The fate of plant species will depend on where they live: lowland species can move uphill for cooler conditions, but mountain plants have nowhere to go.
The study was carried [...]

Statistics made available in January 2024 show that while deforestation in the Amazon fell by half in 2023, it increased 43% in the Cerrado, the Brazilian savanna. A research group at the State University of Campinas’s Institute of Biology (IB-UNICAMP) in Brazil dedicated to ecological studies on the Cerrado have already highlighted the urgency of combating destruction of the biome. However, it is not enough to defend what remains: restoration is also needed.

Grupo da Unicamp e colaboradores investigaram como a manipulação de espécies nativas pode impedir que áreas restauradas voltem a ser invadidas por gramíneas exóticas. Resultados enfatizam a importância de promover a diversidade de espécies
Números divulgados em janeiro deste ano dão conta de que, enquanto o desmatamento da Amazônia caiu pela metade, o do Cerrado aumentou 43% em 2023. [...]

Números divulgados em janeiro deste ano dão conta de que, enquanto o desmatamento da Amazônia caiu pela metade, o do Cerrado aumentou 43% em 2023.
A restauração apresenta, porém, vários desafios. Um deles é a recorrente reinvasão por gramíneas exóticas. Introduzidas em áreas de pastagem, essas gramíneas se alastram, eliminam espécies nativas e descaracterizam o estrato herbáceo, que [...]

O combate ao desmatamento neste bioma é uma necessidade urgente, mas que não basta defender o que ainda existe, é preciso também restaurar.
