Conservation of grassland birds in South Brazil: a land management perspective

Carla Suertegaray Fontana, Graziela Dotta, Cybele Kelm Marques, Márcio Repenning et autres

We explored how grassland birds responded to three different managements in grassland areas. Moreover, we examined whether bird's communities were different depending on the biome grasslands were inserted. We carried out bird surveys in six private farms in the Upland grasslands (Atlantic …

Assessing strategies to reconcile agriculture and bird conservation in the temperate grasslands of South America

Graziela Dotta, Ben Phalan, Thaiane Weinert da Silva, R. Green et autres

Globally, agriculture is the greatest source of threat to biodiversity, through both ongoing conversion of natural habitat and intensification of existing farmland. Land sparing and land sharing have been suggested as alternative approaches to reconcile this threat with the need for land …

Habitat use by grassland birds in natural areas and soybean fields in southern Brazil and Uruguay

Thaiane Weinert da Silva, Graziela Dotta, Daniel Tourem Gressler, Carla Suertegaray Fontana

Livestock production and the replacement of semi-natural grasslands by crops result in land use changes and as consequence some habitat is no longer suitable for all species of grassland birds. Although some generalist species could benefit from such changes, habitat alteration is …

Structure of avian assemblages in grasslands associated with cattle ranching and soybean agriculture in the Uruguayan savanna ecoregion of Brazil and Uruguay

Thaiane Weinert da Silva, Graziela Dotta, Carla Suertegaray Fontana

Conversion of grasslands into crops is a major factor leading to the decline of grassland birds. Cattle ranching represents another disturbance to natural grasslands, but may be less detrimental to grassland birds. We studied the diversity, density, and composition of bird species …

Medium to large-sized mammals in agricultural landscapes of south-eastern Brazil

Graziela Dotta, Luciano Martins Verdade

We determined the patterns of distribution and abundance of medium to large-sized mammals on an agricultural landscape in south-eastern Brazil. Here, we discuss some management recommendations to improve the conservation value of agricultural landscapes. From July 2003 to June 2004 we surveyed …

Trophic categories in a mammal assemblage: diversity in an agricultural landscape

Graziela Dotta, Luciano Martins Verdade

Mammals play an important role in the maintenance and regeneration of tropical forests since they have essential ecological functions and can be considered key-species in structuring biological communities. In landscapes with elevated anthropogenic pressure and high degree of fragmentation, species display distinct …
