Conversion of LULC post-fire and deforestation.
From 2001 and 2019 (Old-Growth Evergreen Forest—A; Secondary Evergreen Forest—B; Old-Growth Semideciduous Forest—E; and Secondary Semideciduous Forest—F) and first, second and third year after fire (Old-Growth Evergreen Forest—C; Secondary Evergreen Forest—D; Old-Growth Semideciduous Forest—G; and Secondary Semideciduous Forest—H). Only classes that exceed 1% of the total converted area are represented.
