Description:	In the southwestern Amazonian state of Acre, intense deforestation in recent decades has madeforests in unprotected areas highly fragmented. This region has also been one of the epicenters of severe drought events in 2005 and 2010, which triggered extensive forest fires across the state. Here, we examine the impacts of forest fire and fragmentation on forest biomass and structure in Acre.
