This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: braz_deforestation_cycleB_lw, Global Market for Exotic Wood leads to Brazilian Deforestation, Loss of biodiversity will cause Loss of genetic diversity, Atmosphere experiences change in local and global climatic patterns, Agricultural Expansion (Soybean) leads to Brazilian Deforestation, Loss of soil quality can lead to more Brazilian Deforestation, Lithosphere experiences Loss of soil quality, Increased erosion rates causes Loss of soil quality, Brazilian Deforestation effects the Lithosphere, Loss of tree and plant species will lead to Loss of biodiversity, Increase of Carbon Dioxide staying in the atmosphere due to less of tree canopy and other vegetation causes change in local and global climatic patterns, Expansion of Infrastructure leads to Brazilian Deforestation, Loss of tree canpoy and other vegetation causes Large influx of Carbon Dioxide being released from decaying biomass, Lithosphere experiences Increased erosion rates, Expansion of Cattle Ranching leads to Brazilian Deforestation, Biosphere experiences Loss of tree and plant species, migrations of animals and people causes voilent conflict, Large influx of Carbon Dioxide being released from decaying biomass causes change in local and global climatic patterns, change in local and global climatic patterns ???? Periods of drought, Biosphere experiences Loss of tree canpoy and other vegetation, change in local and global climatic patterns local impacts include heat island effects can lead to increase in local rainfall (flood events)
