Stakeholder engagement
Amazon PyroCarbon is designed to produce actionable science. We engage directly with stakeholders and partners in Brazil, including government agencies, NGOs, and local land managers, to ensure our findings reach those who need them most.
Our goal is to provide the scientific evidence needed to inform climate mitigation targets, including Brazil’s Paris Accord commitments and its 2060 carbon neutrality goal. By synthesising our data to estimate the regional SOC flux, and by identifying land management practices that enhance soil carbon sequestration, we can help slow the release of carbon that has accumulated in Amazonian soils over millennia.

Policy brief · October 2026
Amazon soil carbon: the missing credit
Burned Amazonian forests still hold large soil carbon stocks, yet no carbon-credit programme recognises them. Four pages, with recommendations for carbon-standard bodies, governments and certification schemes.
Policy brief · October 2026
Andean soil carbon: the deep pool, still uncredited
High-Andean forests store six times more soil carbon than lowland forests, in a durable pool that carbon markets do not see. Two pages, with recommendations for project developers, carbon-standard bodies and conservation funders.
Policy brief · May 2022
Amazon forest fire: rare for millennia, absent for 800 years
Intact Amazon forests have not burned for about 800 years, and the carbon those fires left is still in the soil. Two pages, with recommendations for fire management agencies, carbon-standard bodies and researchers.
É Fogo!
Our research contributed to the É Fogo! book, a public-facing resource that brings the science of Amazonian fire to a wider audience in Brazil and internationally.
