1. Gondwana rocks & Holocene coastal plains: geology of the Campos Sulinos region and relation to current landscape features -- 2. A look into the past: fossils from the Campos Sulinos region -- 3. Past and current climate in the Campos Sulinos region and vegetation dynamics over time -- 4. A historical perspective on the biogeography of the Campos Sulinos region -- 5. Climatic and soil conditions across the Campos Sulinos region -- 6. Colonization and land use history in a marginal region -- 7. Grassland plant community composition and dynamics: disturbance as determinants of grassland diversity -- 8. Plant microevolutionary processes in the Campos Sulinos: why do they matter? -- 9. Campos Sulinos bird communities: effect of land use and management -- 10. Mammals in the Campos Sulinos: diversity and conservation status of grassland species -- 11. Amphibians and reptiles -- 12. Arthropods in the Campos Sulinos and their manifold ecosystem functions -- 13. Fish diversity in a grassland region -- 14. Soil organisms and their role for ecosystem processes -- 15. Wetlands in the Campos Sulinos: diversity, functions and threats -- 16. Soil carbon stocks and carbon storage in Campos Sulinos ecosystems -- 17. Trees and forests in a grassland region: biodiversity, conservation status and threats -- 18. Forest expansion over South Brazilian grasslands and mediating processes -- 19. Conservation of forest-grassland mosaics in southern Brazil -- 20. Future land use scenarios for southeastern South America -- 21. Invasive species: current status and future threats -- 22. Conservation policy in southern Brazil: instruments, implementation and future challenges -- 23. Restoration of grasslands and forest-grassland mosaics in the Campos Sulinos region -- 24. Sustainable development in the Campos Sulinos region -- 25. The future of Brazil's Campos Sulinos (Final Synthesis Chapter)

This volume explores the South Brazilian grasslands, a unique complex of ecosystems in Brazil. Despite high biodiversity and many important ecosystem services, their biodiversity and conservation are neglected, both nationally, and globally. This book provides a state-of-the-art synthesis of knowledge on the biodiversity and its drivers in South Brazilian grasslands and associated ecosystems. Further, the book discusses conservation challenges and options, as well as management strategies that help to maintain the region's uniqueness. The chapters present information on biodiversity and ecological features of the region, and put this information into the context of historical and current human land uses, allowing for links to global discussions of conservation and sustainable development. Altogether, the book contains 20 chapters organized in four sections. The book is directed at researchers, students and professionals working with biodiversity and sustainable development in southern Brazil, as well as to the international scientific and conservation community interested in grasslands and associated ecosystems, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions.
