Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many famous wetlands in the world that have been deemed important for the homeostasis ofthe biosphere and accorded some form ofprotected status in view of the richness of their flora and fauna. T}1e Pantanal, located almost directly in the center ofthe South American continent, is among the largest such wetlands in the world. It is, in fact, the largest wetland that is still in a nearly natural state and has not been extensively modified by man for agriculture. The extent of the region covered by flood waters at the end of each rainy season varies from year to year, sometimes considerably, so estimates of the exact area it occupies have varied enormously. The size of the 2 2 Pantanal has been reported to be between 80,000 km (Bonetto, 1975) and 250,000 km (Tundisi and Matsumura-Tundisi, 1985). The most co~on1y accepted estimates at the present time are approximately 130,000 to 140,000 km , supported by estimates made from Nimbus-7 satellite observations (Hamilton et al. , 1996). However, Por (1995) suggested that the area extending into Bolivia and Paraguay has not been satisfactorily 2 surveyed, leading him to accept the figure of 200,000 km as the area of the entire Pantanal, ineluding all of its extensions. The main reason for the year to year variation in the extent of the flooding is the considerable difference in timing of the rainfall on the watershed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until now there has never been a monograph devoted to the Pantanal, the world's largest wetland. The subject has received scant attention in the international literature, so a number of scattered Portuguese papers are reviewed for an English-language readership. The book presents a broad treatment of the Pantanal, ranging from geology to flora, fauna, and the human presence. The publication of this book is most timely, and will be of crucial importance in decisions affecting the ambitious project for a second South American inland Waterway.

Book excerpt: One of the greatest treasures in the World and one of the hotspots in Brazil: the Pantanal. It has a privileged geographical position on the map, right in the heart of South America, in the middle of the tropical rainforest, surrounded by Caatinga and Cerrado. Almost all the Brazilian fauna is present. The Pantanal is the largest wetland in the world. With an area of about 250,000 square kilometers (roughly the area of Holland, Belgium, Switzerland and Portugal together) the Pantanal extends through Bolivia, Paraguay and Brazil with around 62% in Brazil, in the states of Mato Grosso and Mato Grosso do Sul. Inserted in the central part of the basin in the north of Paraguay, the Pantanal is surrounded and flooded regularly by the Paraguay river and its many tributaries in the region and impresses with extensive wetlands and wild nature - since 2000 World Heritage by Unesco and protected nature “World Biosphere Reserve”. Let me take you to a photographic journey through the Pantanal!
