A biodiversity is termed as a hotspot if −It has at least 1,500 vascular plants as endemic. It must be threatened or under threat of destruction to a considerable extent.Across the world, about 35 areas are marked as hotspots of biodiversity and they represent 2.3 percent of the Earth’...

Next, we explore the implications of our results to the conservation of what’s left of this biodiversity hotspot by (iv) projecting forest degradation impacts to the remaining Atlantic Forest area to estimate the total amount of carbon lost. We also (v) explore the costs and benefit of two ...
