abstract = "The ongoing deforestation process in Amazonia has led to
intensified forest fires in the region, particularly in Brazil,
after more than a decade of effective forest conservation policy.
This study aims to investigate the recovery of two mature
sub-montane ombrophile Amazonian forests affected by fire in terms
of energy, water and carbon fluxes utilizing remote sensing
(MODIS) and climate reanalysis data (GLDAS). These two forest
plots, mainly composed of Manilkara spp. (Ma{\c{c}}aranduba),
Protium spp. (Breu) (\∼30 m), Bertholletia excelsa
(Castanheira) and Dinizia excelsa Ducke (Angelim-Pedra)
(\∼50 m), occupy areas of 100.5 and 122.1 km2 and were
subject to fire on the same day, on September 12, 2010. The fire
significantly increased land surface temperature (0.8°C) and air
temperature (1.2°C) in the forests over a 3 years interval.
However, the forests showed an ability to recover their original
states in terms of coupling between the carbon and water cycles
comparing the 3-year periods before and after the fires. Results
from a wavelet analysis showed an intensification in annual and
seasonal fluctuations, and in some cases (e.g., daily net
radiation and evapotrasnspiration) sub-annual fluctuation. We
interpreted these changes to be consistent with overall
intensification of the coupling of energy balance components and
drivers imposed by climate and solar cycle seasonality, as well as
faster time scale changes, consistent with a shift toward greater
forest openness and consequent reduction in the interception of
incoming solar radiation by the canopy.",
