located in the Amazonian are of deforestation are presented. The
experiment was carried out in 2001 at the Caiabi Farm, near the
town of Alta Floresta, Mato Grosso as part of a set of tests that
have been performed in the same {\'a}rea since 1997 (Fig.l),
where six test plots were already slashed and burned. The main
goal of the first five tests. (plots A, B, C, D, and E) was to
determine biomass f{\'{\i}}re consumption and carbon release
rates under different conditions of size and period of cure of the
slashed and burned plots (Carvalho et ai., 2001). This were also
the objectives of previous experiments conducted by the group in
the Manaus, Amazon {\'a}rea (Carvalho et ai., 1995, 1998), as
well as in Tom{\'e} A{\c{c}}u, Par{\'a} (Ara{\'u}jo et ai.,
1999). In ali cases, special care had to be taken to prevent the
f{\'{\i}}re from escaping from the slashed site into the
adjacent forest Thus, to investigate the under-story f{\'{\i}}re
generated during the burning of the slashed forest, in 2001 a test
was made in plot F, and its results are here presented. The 4 ha
plot was felled in May, and burned on August 20, starting at 13:47
