| Abstract | Fire is a very important disturbancein Amazonia. Burnings have a great potential to alter carbon and nutrient cycling (Crutzen and Andreae 1990; Hughes et al. 2000), change the atmosphere composition (Kaufman and Fraser 1997; Brasseur et al. 1999), and modify ecosystems structure and functions (Cochrane et al. 1999; Nepstad et al. 1999). The effects of fires in Amazonia have been measured in experiments in primary forests, pastures and regenerating areas, and have shown that fires can be responsible for large consumption of aboveground biomass and abrupt losses of nutrients (Kauffman et al. 1998; Hughes et al. 2000). Fires also leave a signal that is detectable by remote sensing of the Earth's surface; satellite data show an intense and extensive presence of fires in Amazonia, especially during the dry season in the region (Setzer and Malingreau 1996; Prins et al. 1998). Spatial patterns in deforestation and fires from satellite data in Amazonia are very similar, and together with results from fieldwork on land use, suggest a close relation between human activities and fires (Skole and Tucker 1993; Nepstad et al. 1999). Generally speaking, the risk of fires is strongly influenced by both climate and land use. Since both factors are expected to change in the future (The LBA Science Planning Group 1996; Cox et al. 2000), questions about the future dynamics of fires in Amazonia are particularly relevant. For example: How specifically do climate and human activities influence fire risk? Will projected changes in human activities and climate cause changes in fire patterns? How will future fire dynamics affect vegetation boundaries and carbon fluxes? To properly address such questions, new fire models are developed based on data from the region, that reproduce the main features of regional fire dynamics, and that can be coupled to ecosystem models. In order to develop the new fire models, an understanding of patterns of fire in Amazonia as well as the factors that explain them is required. To this end, the Automated Biomass Burning Algorithm (ABBA) fire product data sets of the University of Wisconsin - Madison are currently analysed. These data are based on the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES- 8) and provide fire information atfour daily detection times during the fire season, from June toOctober (Prins et al. 1998). |
