Beyond Boundaries: Rethinking Biomes Interdependencies in Conservation Policies

Le résumé fourni par la source

Biomes are fundamental units for biodiversity conservation given their large geographical coverage and peculiarities. The interconnectivity among biomes maintains biodiversity and climate patterns at larger spatial and temporal scales. Therefore, treating biomes as isolated entities can undermine the effectiveness of environmental policies and governance towards sustainability goals. In Brazil, for instance, such fractional perspectives could create fragmented or limited understanding of important socio-ecological interconnections among biomes, ultimately constraining effective conservation strategies and policies. Yet much has been done to integrate Brazilian biomes in scientific research or conservation projects, here we portray how the adoption of an integrated view that considers the synergies and interdependencies among biomes is critical for promoting effective conservation. This is important to ensure the persistence of significant ecological benefits derived from the natural resources of these biomes.
