TITLE:

SPATIAL AND TEMPORAL DYNAMICS OF FOREST FIRES IN THE STATE OF GOIÁS, BRAZIL

KEY WORDS:

Fire scars, Environmental impacts, Remote sensing, Satellite imagery

PAGES: 54
BIG AREA: Outra
AREA: Multidisciplinar
SUMMARY:

The state of Goiás, located in the central region of Brazil, encompasses a significant portion of its territory covered by the cerrado biome, which exhibits several characteristics that favor the occurrence of wildfires as a natural process. Nevertheless, it has been greatly impacted by forest fires, which result in significant environmental repercussions, causing harm to both fauna and flora and contributing to the release of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. In light of these circumstances, the present study aims to analyze the spatial and temporal dynamics of forest fires in this region and quantify the processes that contribute to their incidence and their impacts on the degradation of forest resources from 1985 to 2020. To accomplish this, the study employed the QGIS software, the Google Earth Engine platform, and the products from MapBiomas Collection 7.0 and 2.0. This approach aimed to identify areas more susceptible to forest fires, providing valuable information for the mitigation or prevention of occurrences in this region. Additionally, it seeks to promote the use of these tools to assist in operational, managerial, and scientific contexts.
