Brazil's internal migration trends reveal challenges in absorbing migrants long-term.
The article explores internal migration patterns in Brazil from 2005 to 2010 using circular visualization. The researchers used a chord diagram plot to show the movement of people between different states in Brazil. They found that recent trends in migration show people moving to new areas instead of staying in one place for a long time. Some migrants are also returning to their original areas. This suggests that certain regions in Brazil struggle to accommodate migrants over extended periods, leading to shifts in migration patterns.
