High-elevation tropical forest soils in Colombian Andes store nine times more pyrogenic carbon than lowland Amazonian forests, as shown by Dr Montes-Pulido in our Colombia BioResilience project.

A new study on "Post-fire changes in tree diversity, composition, and carbon in seasonal forests in the Southern Amazonia" by a PhD student, Maurivan Pereira, I supervise in Brazil: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

I'd like to give a big thank you to my colleague, Prof. Plinio Camargo, co-PI on our NERC-FAPESP Amazon PyroCarbon Project, and the team for the support they are providing for our soil sampling in burned forests across Amazonia.

Fire swept though most of the permanent forest plots where we are doing research south of Manaus in central Amazonia, leaving an open canopy that dries the understory and standing dead trees that could be fuel for future fires.

Our Amazon PyroCarbon Project team has been in the field studying forests that have burned in central Amazonia. We are doing research in plots around Manaus where in December, which is the wet season, forests in the region are still burning and the ferry is now a bridge stuck in a nearly dry river.
