Abstract
⺠Forest fires occurred in western Amazonia during a major drought in 2005. ⺠Carbon emissions are estimated from biomass maps and satellite images. ⺠Forest fires represent a major but relatively little-studied degradation source. ⺠Predicted climatic changes make this form of perturbation a major concern.
