                         in the Amazon and, in the past, it was made for subsistence in 
                         lowland forests and, therefore, it was very low impact. The 
                         intensification of logging occurred in the 1970s, mainly due to 
                         the construction of roads, depletion of southern and southeastern 
                         stocks, and uncontrolled exploitation. These factors led the 
                         Amazon to the position of the world's second largest producer of 
                         tropical timber, in which Par{\'a} and Mato Grosso the main 
                         producing states. At Mato Grosso state, timber sector plays an 
                         important economic role, contributing strongly to the state's 
                         revenues and generating jobs. In this context, the present study 
                         aimed to characterize the municipalities in the north of the state 
                         of Mato Grosso considering their participation in the wood 
                         production chain, according to a typology of municipalities' 
                         influence patterns in the state's timber sector, and the profile 
                         socioeconomic context in which they are inserted. The results 
                         showed that there are five different patterns: 1) municipalities 
                         with highly developed industry, 2) municipalities with primary 
                         industries with high wood processing capacity, 3) municipalities 
                         with industries with low processing capacity and high lumber 
                         stock, 4) few lumber and small timber industries, and 5) 
                         municipalities with virtually no logging and poor-quality stock. 
                         Regarding the socioeconomic characterization, the results showed 
                         that the municipalities with high industrialization have the 
                         highest indicators analyzed.",
