The fire emission estimates (for all of the Amazon, also the one outside Brazil) suggests that 2019 is not in any way a record http://www.globalfiredata.org/forecast.html pic.twitter.com/IxOUXXyW62
Robert Walker has a great walk-through of why the Brazilian INPE is in general a great science outlet and we should likely trust their deforestation estimates, but how the number-of-fires estimates are not reliablehttps://www.science20.com/robert_walker/nasa_say_the_amazon_is_burning_at_below_average_rates_yet_many_news_stories_say_record_rates-240959 …
It would be interesting to know what is burning and how they started. My guess is most are on purpose to clear land.
I'm the author. In Boreal South Ameria, half are forest fires, rest mainly fires which they do every few years to refresh grassland. Nowadays 75% of Amazon forest fires are grassland fires that got out of hand (used to be correlated with deforestation). https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/feart.2018.00228/full …
The article mixes two distinct INPE's programs, Deter (deforestation alerts) and "Queimadas" (burning areas). Some media outlets reported record increase in deforestation monthly rates based on Deter data, which is wrong accordingly to INPE itself.
Thanks yes I cover both. Fire counts also should not be used as in media - I link to their FAQ on that. E.g. one fire counted multiple times. I did know they are separate programs but I did mistakenly use DETER to refer to Queimadas at one point in the article, thanks. Now fixed.
Hi the unroll you asked for: Thread by @BjornLomborg: "With all the media claims about the Amazon burning at "record" rates, it is perhaps worth realizing that NASA says total […]" https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1165049726003056640.html …
Enjoy :) 
Bjorn, the estimates from INPE are actually quite similar to NASA. The media outrage is due to malicious use of data, specially with the comparison with last years low record. INPE data clearly states that # of fires is 5% below historical average and 14% above last 7 years av
