Abstract
The study of the relationship between fire and the dynamics of Brazilian landscapes is a major issue for a better understanding of ecological processes and the human impacts on landscape dynamics. We explore the dynamics of spatial-temporal variation in fire occurrence in Brazilian biomes during the last 18 years (2001-2018), based on the burned area product MCD64A1 v006 and the database of land use and land cover of Mapbiomas project. The Cerrado recorded 62.2% of the total burned in the analyzed period, followed by the Amazon biome, with 23.5%. Pampa, Mata Atlântica and Amazônia had a fire occurrence above ≈50% in areas with agropastoral land uses, while in the Cerrado, Caatinga and Pantanal biomes the fires occurred mainly on areas of natural vegetation. We confirmed the potential for combining the use of products derived from remote sensing for the analysis of the patterns of burned areas, generating relevant information regarding the anthropic influences in the alteration of fire regimes.
