This study analyzed deforestation from 1988 to 2014 in a mosaic and buffer area
of conservation units in theSena Madureira Municipality, Acre, Brazil to support
management of these units. This mosaic is composed of the Cazumbá Iracema
Extractive Reserve, Macauã National Forest and San Francisco National Forest for a
total of 968.438 ha. Data from "the Amazon Deforestation Program - PRODES" and
from Hansen et al (2013) method, both using Landsat imagery, provided the basis for
analysis of deforestation in the Mosaic and 10 km from its boundaries. The calculations
were made in ArcGIS 9.3 and Excel. The area was divided into internal and external
buffers to identify critical areas for management. In a second stratification process the
area was divided into two geographical regions (northeast and southwest), followed by a
third stratification into six subregions, subdivided into inside and outside buffers of 10
km width, producing 12 strata. During the period 1988-2014 6,385 ha were deforested
within the Mosiac, corresponding to 0.7% of its total area. About 1.1% of the internal
buffer of the Mosaic was deforested and 8.6% of the external buffer. The Northeast
macro-region, which has 23% of the area contains about 97% of the deforested area. We
conclude that the majority of deforestation is concentrated in an area of less than a
quarter of the total area. In temporal analysis using PRODES data, there is a general
decrease in the annual rates of deforestation for the period 2000-2014, with alternating
peaks from year to year. PRODES and Hansen databases produced similar cumulative
values when grouped by strata; nine of the twelve strata were differences within a range
of ± 20% But when analyzed separately by year values for strata differed by up to
182%, which cannot be explained by the minimum criteria of registered polygons or the
difference in the beginning months of the year (August versus January). During the
period 2000 to 2003, for example, PRODES recorded a dramatic increase in deforestation rates in the strata when Hansen data indicated a reduction in the
deforestation rates. For management purposes it is suggested to use the two databases to
identify trends in the deforestation rates. When the two trends are consistent, decisions
on location and landscape transformation rates are more robust. When trends are
divergent, the recommendation is to use additional information to determine which of
the two is more representative of reality. |
