Amazon rainforest in map-The intensity and frequency of droughts in turn, have been linked with increases in regional deforestation and anthropogenic climate change According to the National Institute for Space Research, there had been 184,661 fires as of in Brazil and in Bolivia the number was 43,769 These represent the total number of fires in those countries, but a significant number, and the
The Amazon is the largest remaining tropical rainforest in the world and produces % of the world's oxygen As the fires in the rainforest continue to Credit NASA/JPLCaltech/Earth Observatory NASA's ECOSTRESS sensor measured the stress levels of plants when it passed over the Peruvian Amazon rainforest on The map reveals that the fires were concentrated in areas of waterstressed plants (brown) The pattern points to how plant health can impact the spread of fires The Amazon rainforest, which is often referred to as the Earth's lungs, covers an area of about 57 million square kilometres — that's about three quarters of
Josh Ocampo In August, roughly 66,000 fires ravaged the Amazon rainforest, much of it the result of manmade deforestation After initially In MAAP #109 we reported a major finding critical to understanding this year's fires in the Brazilian Amazon many of the 19 fires followed 19 deforestation events Here, we present our more comprehensive estimate 125,000 hectares (310,000 acres) deforested in 19 and then later burned in 19 (JulySeptember) This is equivalent to 172,000 soccer fields* NASA's ECOSTRESS sensor measured the stress levels of plants when it passed over the Peruvian Amazon rainforest on The map reveals that the fires were concentrated in areas of waterstressed plants (brown) The pattern points to how plant health can impact the spread of fires Credits NASA/JPLCaltech/Earth Observatory

Throughout most of its history, the Amazon rainforest was relatively fireresistant thanks to its natural moisture and humidity Wildfires there today are caused by a combination of droughts and human activity; As of , satellite observations indicated that total fire activity in the Amazon basin was slightly below average in comparison to the The amount of Amazon forest cover lost in Brazil in that span spiked 39% Last year, according to Global Forest Watch, the tropics overall lost some million acres of
As many would know, the rainforest is part of the biosphere, one of the four that resides in Earth which works together as a system Amazon rainforests play a major role in keeping the spheres in balance, specifically supporting the atmosphere by stabilizing the world's climate, as well as maintaining the water cycle, part of the hydrosphere (Butler, 19) The Amazon rainforest has broken an unfortunate record this year, with almost 73,000 fires occurring all in Brazil between January and August, which is an percent increase from 18, according to the National Institute for Space Research More than half of the reported fires this year are said to be located in the Amazon Credit NASA Since January, a staggering 121,000 fires have broken out across Brazil—and more than half of those fires are taking place in
