Abstract | The Brazilian Amazon is a hotspot of deforestation and forest degradation caused by logging, fire, and deforestation-associated fragmentation and edge effects. While the extent of deforestation and associated carbon losses are relatively well known, the quantification of the carbon losses caused by degradation and the carbon gained by recovery of degraded forest ranges widely and is difficult to quantify accurately regionally. We analyzed forest changes and associated carbon gains and losses by using repeated randomized airborne lidar surveys for 2016 and 2017-2018 over 99 different transects, totaling 48,279 ha of forest throughout the Brazilian Arc of Deforestation. We directly measured changes in canopy height between the two airborne lidar campaigns, and gridded the surveyed area into 50 x 50 m cells to estimate aboveground carbon using a previously calibrated model based on the top of canopy height. We classified every 0.25 ha cell into one of the seven forest transition classes: deforestation, forest fires, logging, windthrows, other disturbances, forest growth, and no change. We found that disturbances directly attributed to human activity impacted 4.2% of the survey area while windthrows and other disturbances affected 2.7% and 14.7% respectively. By extrapolating the lidar-based statistics to the study area (544,300 km2), we found that 24.1, 24.2, and 14.5 Tg C y-1 were lost through deforestation, fires, and logging, respectively. The losses due to large windthrows (21.5 Tg C y-1) and other disturbances (50.3 Tg C y-1) were partially counterbalanced by forest growth (44.1 Tg C y-1). Our high-resolution estimates demonstrated a greater loss of carbon through forest degradation than through deforestation and a net loss of carbon of 90.5 ± 20.8 Tg C y-1 for the study region attributable to both anthropogenic and natural processes. Our regional detailed quantification of carbon changes highlights that degradation is a major driver of the carbon budget of the Amazon tropical forest. |
