Moreover, the great doubt arising from the misunderstanding of ecological process involved in a tropical rain forests and the pressing need to preserve them, not only as stock for biodiversity but as a main factor in the regulation of global climate, makes southeamerican savannas to be an important alternative for scientific research and mankind use, all under the tendency of a better resource development and its sustainability. A good sample of this is issues is the recent discovery by CIAT scientists of carbon sequestration in tropical savanna soils with introduced pastures which may suppose one solution to the threat of global warming
