The PPBio Southern Brazilian Grasslands Network consists of 15 sampling sites distributed throughout the South Brazilian grassland region (‘Campos Sulinos’), an exceptionally diverse natural grassland region located in the southernmost part of Brazil.
These modules aim to obtain basic data about the distribution of biodiversity along this highway. This information can be used for land use planning, monitoring and evaluation of the environmental impacts of the BR-319. The imstallation of modules is faster than full grids and allows for greater spatial comprehensiveness. So far, there are 14 modules along the 700km highway between Manaus and Humaitá, 11 are active and 3 have been disactivated (KM83, KM158 and KM820).
