Figure 6. Classes of age of secondary forest, period of active land use, and frequency of clearance for the three sites.

Figure 6

Classes of A) age of secondary forest (ASF), B) period of active land use (PALU), and C) frequency of clearance (FC) for the three sites, as a proportion of the area with secondary forest (SF) in the last date of the time-series. The proportion of the area with SF in the first class of PALU (≤2 years) in the Santarém site includes a small proportion (1.5%) corresponding to areas of SF persisting in all dates of the time-series. The proportion of the area with SF in the first class of FC (1x) in Manaus, Santarém and Machadinho d’Oeste includes a small percentage (0.1%, 1.6%, 0.1%, respectively) corresponding to those cases where non-forest (NF) was observed in the first date of the time-series and no clearance has occurred (i.e., the only transition was from NF to SF).
