Conteúdo:	The accelerated rate of land usage and the heightened incidence of fire points as historically seen in the legal Amazon region have reached alarming proportions and have attracted the attention of politicians, environmentalists and society in general. Different policies, strategies and monitoring and control actions have been proposed, with the objective of containing the advance of the agricultural frontier on remanent areas of natural vegetation, more specifically on Humid Tropical Forest areas. The State of Mato Grosso, located in the Legal Amazon Region, presents special characteristics for the understanding of relationships between land use or land cover and the incidence of burns due to the convergence of important environmental diversity and socioeconomic actors. This paper focuses on the dynamics of burns in this state, by identifying some of the principal contributing factors based on spatial-statistical analysis. The results show the existence of different spacial and temporal patterns that influence the occurrence of fires. These patterns point to the limitations of simplistic and generalized adaptation of localized information and burn quantification, whatever their spacial delimitation, for the purpose of elaborating public policies that aim to definitively change ou eradicate the chronic emergency stage of fires occurrence in the Legal Amazon Region in Brazil.
