We will work in places that are highly vulnerable to compounded recovery challenges in the shadow of the pandemic - not solely because of disease impacts, but because its wide…
Climate change, partly already observed in some regions of the Amazon, causes the prolongation of the dry season and the increase in the frequency of extreme droughts. These changes combined with landscape fragmentation and forest degradation, resulting from logging and the expansion of the agricultural frontier, are the main causes of uncontrolled fires that become fires. In the state of…
Forest degradation results mainly from burning in neighbouring deforested areas from which fires escape control to become forest fires. These events are intensified by the combined effect of logging and climate change, jeopardizing the conservation of the Amazon rainforest and its ecosystem services. Logging, both in authorized management plans and through illegal activities, increases th…
The occurrence of fires in the Amazon rainforest threatens the integrity of this complex system that harbors great biological and human diversity and plays an important role in climate regulation and provision of ecosystem services. Fires in the Amazon occur through a combination of factors: anthropogenic ignition sources mainly from deforestation and the use of fire for agricultural and …
