Vol. I: Origin, Structure, Dynamics and Plant Use

In the first volume, we examine in detail the vegetation, its structure, dynamics and presumed origin. Emphasis is on the adaptational features of plants in relation to their physical environment, in particular climate, soil conditions and fire. Further, we discuss the utility to humans of cerrado plants, the influence of man upon this ecosystem, and confront some of the problems associated with conservation politics.
