Abstract: Recebido em abril de 2018. Aprovado em novembro de 2018. RESUMOA Floresta Amazônica abrange 1/3 das florestas tropicais úmidas do planeta. Desta área, aproximadamente 62% encontra-se no território brasileiro sendo o mais extenso dos biomas brasileiros predominantemente florestais.

We found that this general pattern was consistent across sampled years-e.g.…”
