L.  aSlash-and-burn effects on carbon stocks in the humid tropics.h[electronic resource]  c2000  ap. 99-115.  a(Advances in Soil Science).  aTropical forests are cleared for a variety of reasons that include logging, establishment of plantations and pastures, and slash-and-burn agriculture. The primary cause of deforestation differs by country and even regions within countries but is usually associated with some form of slash-and-burn agriculture, either as the primary driving force or as a consequence of increased access to forests by logging operations and road construction. In this chapter present summary data on carbon stocks in forests and slash-and-burn systems from nine of the ASE sites located in Brazil, Cameroon, Indonesia, and Peru.  aCarbon sinks  aTropical soils  aCarbono  aEstoque  aSolo Úmido  aDerruba-e-queima  aReservorios de carbono  aSlash-and-burn  aSuelo tropical1 aPALM, C.
