Pantanal Conservation Area - UNESCO
"The site plays a key role in the dispersion of nutrients to the entire basin and is the most important reserve for maintaining fish stocks in the Pantanal. The area preserves habitats representative of the Pantanal that contain a number of globally threatened species. The area is a refuge for fauna as it is the only area of the Pantanal that remains partially inundated during the dry season."

Pantanal Environment
"The land declivity, almost null, is only 6 to 12 cm/km in the East-West direction and from 1 to 2 cm/km in the North-South direction, favoring flooding which propagates from North to South and from East to West along the Paraguay River which is the only natural drainage way of the Pantanal."
