Soil bacterial communities remain altered after 30 years of agriculture abandonment in Pampa grasslands
(Springer, 2020-08)
Old fields are spreading in the world because of agriculture abandonment, and they show a persistence of exotic plant species with little recovery towards the original vegetation composition. Soil biota may also differ ...
Modern pollen assemblages of surface samples and their relationships to vegetation in the campos region of Uruguay
(Elsevier Science, 2012-08)
This study documents the relationship between the modern pollen assemblages and the main vegetation types of the campos region of Uruguay. A total of 46 surface soil samples from grasslands, riparian forests, low mountain ...
A comparison of bird communities in natural and revegetated grasslands in south Brazil
(Soc Brasileira Ornitologia, 2019-09-01)
Natural grasslands are declining due to loss, fragmentation and degradation, resulting in the decline of grassland-associated bird species. The Pampas Biome in south Brazil is not exception to this worldwide trend, facing ...
Grassland afforestation impact on primary productivity: A remote sensing approach
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2013-07)
Question: How is the magnitude and seasonality of carbon uptake affected by the replacement of native grasslands by eucalyptus plantations? Location: Río de la Plata Grasslands in Argentina and Uruguay. Methods: A total ...
Responses of birds to planting of Lotus tenuis pasture in the Flooding Pampas, Argentina
(Csiro Publishing, 2015-03)
The Flooding Pampas is the most important livestock region of Argentina, but is a region where replacement of originally natural, perennial tussock grasses by pasture species is changing the heterogeneity of the grassland ...
Restoring Brazilian savanna ground layer vegetation by topsoil and hay transfer
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2018-01-01)
Tropical grassy biomes have been widely neglected for conservation and, after unplanned land use conversion, ecological restoration becomes urgent. The majority of interventions have been based on the misapplication of ...
Role of fire on patagonian grasslands: Changes in aboveground vegetation and soil seed bank
(Nova Science Publishers, 2010)
Grasslands are ecosystems dominated by herbaceous and woody vegetation, whose structure is determined by fire, grazing, and drought. Although these structuring factors determine the natural dynamics of grasslands, their ...

(2019-09-01)
Natural grasslands are declining due to loss, fragmentation and degradation, resulting in the decline of grasslandassociated bird species. The Pampas Biome in south Brazil is not exception to this worldwide trend, facing ...
Progress in understanding the hydrology of high-elevation andean grasslands under changing land use
(2022)
High-elevation grasslands worldwide provide essential hydrological services including water provision, flow regulation, and erosion control. Despite their importance, hydrological research of grasslands in montane regions ...
Interaction between fire and fragmentation in the successional stages of coastal dune grasslands of the southern Pampas, Argentina
(Nature Publishing Group, 2019-10-22)
Vegetation’s increased vulnerability to extrinsic disturbances is an important but less studied efect of natural habitat fragmentation. Fire is part of the evolutionary history of grassland ecosystems, but fragmentation ...
