Table 2 Relative per annum percentage trends in deforestation rates, fire counts, burned area, Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) and total fire-related carbon dioxide emissions in % year\({}^{-1}\). Errors are quoted as 95% confidence intervals around the linear regression slope. Values in bold are statistically significant at the 95% confidence level. Trends are shown for the full period and for the precipitation-adjusted (PA) time series.
