abstract = "The Amazon biome is the bigger Brazilian one in terms of area and
has the largest continuous canopy of tropical rainforest.
Featuring a complex network of environmental services still poorly
investigated and measured, the Amazon biome has the lowest human
development indices and the highest deforestation rates in Brazil.
Since 1988, the Federal Government has heavily invested to curb
the process of eradication of natural systems and implement
actions and public policies in order to reduce the deforestation
rates in the Amazon. Aiming to identify the main drivers of the
deforestation in the Guam{\'a} River watershed, Par{\'a} State,
this study evaluated the land use and cover change (LUCC) between
2004 and 2014. As a result, it was verified that during the
studied period, approximately 20% of the area presented some LUCC
transition, and 45% of them were related to new deforestation
processes. The analysis of LUCC in these areas showed that 63% of
them were used for pasture and only 4% for annual crops.
Therefore, in the Guam{\'a} River watershed, pastures constitute
the main land use class to occupy the new deforested areas,
corroborating other studies carried out in the State of Par{\'a}.
Nevertheless, it is premature to say that the expansion of cattle
ranching is the main deforestation driver. Certainly, other
reasons were associated with deforestation phenomena, such as
selective logging and land speculation.",
