Resumo: The aiming of this review is to point out some research fields in fire ecology and its impact on Amazonia vegetation. The incidence of fire on the moist Amazon region sounded a contradiction until recent years. Fire always acted in vegetation structuring, even though independent of human existence. However, fire regimes are changing worldwide, as in the Amazon, motivated by global climate change and climate anomalies. Forest fires impact vegetation differently, depending on the ecosystem, soil type, and plant morphology and age. Many species can respond positively, with survival mechanisms or post-fire re-growth. A better understanding of how Amazon plants respond to fire impact is necessary in order to understand if Amazon moist forest is actually still fire-immune, and how could fire contribute to Amazon forest "savannization”.

A ocorrência de incêndios na Amazônia úmida parecia uma contradição até bem pouco tempo. O fogo é independente da existência de humanos e o mesmo sempre atuou na estruturação da vegetação. Entretanto hoje, com as anomalias e as mudanças climáticas globais, os regimes de fogo têm se alterado em todo o mundo e também na Amazônia. O fogo impacta de forma diferente, dependendo da região amazônica em que ocorre, e isso pode estar relacionado ao solo, bem como à morfologia e idade das plantas. Muitas espécies podem responder de forma positiva, possuindo mecanismos de sobrevivência ou rebrote pós-fogo. É necessária uma melhor compreensão de como as plantas da Amazônia respondem ao impacto do fogo, no sentido de entender o quanto a floresta tropical Amazônica ainda é de fato imune aos incêndios, e de que modo o fogo poderia contribuir com a chamada “savanização” da Amazônia.Embrapa Florestas2016-12-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/article/view/122210.4336/2016.pfb.36.88.1222Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira; v. 36 n. 88 (2016): out./dez.; 505-517Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira; Vol. 36 No. 88 (2016): out./dez.; 505-5171983-26051809-3647reponame:Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira (Online)instname:Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)instacron:EMBRAPAporhttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/article/view/1222/544Liesenfeld, Marcus Vinicius AthaydesVieira, GilMiranda, Ires Paula de Andradeinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2017-04-28T14:13:33Zoai:pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb:article/1222Revistahttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/PUBhttps://pfb.cnpf.embrapa.br/pfb/index.php/pfb/oaipfb@embrapa.br || revista.pfb@gmail.com || patricia.mattos@embrapa.br1983-26051809-3647opendoar:2017-04-28T14:13:33Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira (Online) - Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária (Embrapa)false
