Extinctions still to come | Nature

Access through your institution Buy or subscribe Up to 90% of extinctions due to Amazon rainforest loss have yet to occur, a modelling study suggests. The team then projected Amazon

extinctions up to 2050 on the basis of four scenarios of different levels of forest regulation. They found that in the most likely scenario, 60–70% of expected extinctions would be yet to

come as a result of past and future habitat loss. This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access through your institution Subscribe to this
