- Abstract
Concentrated in regions of ongoing deforestation, in 18% of Amazonia grid cells, PM SB 2.5 sb emissions associated with biomass burning and deforestation were significantly positively correlated. Although it is no secret that deforestation has been dramatically increasing in Amazonia in the past few years [[1], [4]], too little attention has been given to the plight of Indigenous lands, which have never before experienced such dramatic incursion and illegal deforestation. In 2021, 13,200 km SP 2 sp of forest was cut down, the highest annual deforestation rate since 2006, when deforestation in Amazonia hit 14,300 km SP 2 sp [[2]].
