                         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
