                         biodiversity and ecosystem services. Although the impacts of 
                         deforestation are well studied, multiple land-use and land-cover 
                         transitions (LULCTs) occur in tropical landscapes, and we do not 
                         know how LULCTs differ in their rates or impacts on key ecosystem 
                         components. Here, we quantified the impacts of 18 LULCTs on three 
                         ecosystem components (biodiversity, carbon, and soil), based on 18 
                         variables collected from 310 sites in the Brazilian Amazon. Across 
                         all LULCTs, biodiversity was the most affected ecosystem 
                         component, followed by carbon stocks, but the magnitude of change 
                         differed widely among LULCTs and individual variables. Forest 
                         clearance for pasture was the most prevalent and high-impact 
                         transition, but we also identified other LULCTs with high impact 
                         but lower prevalence (e.g., forest to agriculture). Our study 
                         demonstrates the importance of considering multiple ecosystem 
                         components and LULCTs to understand the consequences of human 
                         activities in tropical landscapes.",
