OS IMPACTOS DO DESMATAMENTO E QUEIMADAS DE ORIGEM ANTRÓPICA SOBRE O CLIMA DA AMAZÔNIA BRASILEIRA: UM ESTUDO DE REVISÃO.

This article brings, through a systematic review, a historical perspective on the evolution of the knowledge of the impacts caused by the fires and deforestation on the climate of the Amazon, covering a time series between 1990 and 2015, based on the national and international scientific literature. The search of articles was carried out in two different scientific electronic databases: Capes/Mec Periodical and Scientific Eletronic Library Online-Scielo. The searches were conducted through the use of descriptors, in Portuguese and English, based on the terms contained in the titles or key words of the abstract of the papers. Articles that were outside the geographical boundary were excluded. A total of 779 studies were identified in the two search databases, in which 60 studies were selected, both nationally and internationally, and 48 were removed, with only the studies directly related to the subject being removed. The review made it possible to analyze 12 studies on the impacts of deforestation and burning on the Brazilian Amazonian climate. The impacts caused by anthropogenic actions such as deforestation and burning on the Amazonian climate are widely studied by the scientific community. Significant results from research have helped to understand the role of aerosol particles emitted by the burning during the dry season on the Amazonian ecosystem. Although the studies on the impacts caused on the climate by the fires and deforestation have shown evolution in the production of new knowledge about the interaction between biosphere-atmosphere, the possible climatic effects of the particles of aerosols are not yet fully understood.
