“…1,4 Results of recent studies in the Brazilian Amazon have behaved in a similar was: frequency and rates of morbidity due to respiratory disease were relatively related to certain concentrations of particulate material, 13 to periods of low air humidity and to burning in the region. 7,18 The time series of the hospital admissions in Manaus showed seasonal behavior clearly associated with air humidity (Figure 2b). It is possible that environmental characteristics inherent to the rainy period in the region play an important role in increasing rates of hospitalization for respiratory disease in children.…”

“…In the Brazilian Amazon, the number of emergency room visits for respiratory diseases in children under the age of 10 was positively correlated with concentrations of PM 2.5 65 . Descriptive studies show a high prevalence of asthma and an increase in morbimortality due to respiratory diseases in municipalities in the subequatorial Amazon region in biomass burning areas 59,61,66,72 .…”

“…Por fim destaca-se que dentre as varáveis meteorológicas a precipitação foi a que teve o maior peso na construção do índice. Rosa et al, (2008). Gandu et al, (2004) realizaram simulações para a região leste da Amazônia e sugerem que nas áreas costeiras do Pará e sobre os grandes rios da região, o desmatamento pode ser responsável por um decréscimo de precipitação.…”
