We propose a protocol for strategic decision-making in the implementation of reforestation requirements in the new Forest Code. We worked with the microregion of Colíder to identify priority levels for reforestation in private lands. In addition, we estimated the investment levels required for three distinct reforestation scenarios. This work is part of ICC/University of Chicago and IPAM partnership.

Effects of experimental fuel additions on fire intensity and severity: unexpected carbon resilience of a neotropical forest

Global changes and associated droughts, heat waves, logging activities, and forest fragmentation may intensify fires in Amazonia by altering forest microclimate and fuel dynamics. To isolate the effects of fuel loads on fire behavior and fire‐induced changes in forest carbon cycling, we manipulated fine fuel loads in a fire experiment located in southeast Amazonia.
