             abstract = "We present a validation of three MODIS burned area products, 
                         namely AQM/INPE, MCD45A1/NASA and MCD64A1/NASA, covering a 6-year 
                         period (2005-2010) over Jalap{\~a}o, a fire-prone region located 
                         in the Cerrado. As reference we use high resolution BA maps 
                         derived from Landsat imagery. Because the products to be validated 
                         have different spatial resolutions than that of reference maps 
                         (i.e. AQM with 1 km, NASA with 500 m and Landsat scars with 30 m), 
                         the error matrix was estimated following a new approach based on 
                         the assumption of mixed pixels, where the agreement/disagreement 
                         between product and reference data are computed taking into 
                         account the proportion of BA from reference data within the 
                         product pixel. The two NASA products present very low commission 
                         errors (< 10%) but they are affected by very high occurrence of 
                         omission errors (> 60%). The AQM product has larger commission 
                         errors (20 to 40%) but a large fraction of those (more than 40%) 
                         occur at the borders of the scars and may therefore not be 
                         strictly viewed as false alarms; there is also a clear reduction 
                         of the omission cases (< 40% in all cases). The AQM product 
                         presents a clear reduction of omission errors that reflects a 
                         higher probability of detection of burned pixels. The new product 
                         appears therefore as more sensitive to sub-pixel burned areas, 
                         even when working at a lower spatial resolution; this particular 
                         feature may be attributed to the use of middle infrared 
                         reflectance by the algorithm.",
