Mato Grosso do Sul
The "cerrado" landscape is characterized by extensive savanna formations crossed by gallery forests and stream valleys. This ecosystem includes various types of vegetation. Humid fields and "buriti" palm paths are found where the water table is near the surface. Alpine pastures occur at higher altitudes, and mesophytic forests grow on more fertile soils. The "cerrado" trees have distinctive twisted trunks covered in thick bark, and their leaves are typically broad and rigid. Many herbaceous plants have extensive roots to store water and nutrients. The plants' thick bark and roots serve as adaptations to the periodic fires that sweep through the cerrado landscape, protecting them from destruction and allowing them to sprout again after the fire.
