Serrapilheira Project

LASA has being supported by Serrapilheira through the ongoing research Project “Fire, Vegetation and Atmosphere Inter-Relationships: Understanding the Fire Regimes in Cerrado and Amazon Forest Using Remote Sensing” led by Professor Renata Libonati dos Santos.

Serrapilheira is a private non-profit institution, with the overall objective of fostering excellence in scientific research, enhancing young people’s enjoyment of, and interest in, science, training
young scientists for conducting cutting-edge research, increasing gender and racial diversity in science in Brazil, and building a science culture in the country.

Specifically, Serrapilheira seeks to identify and support the best young researchers in Brazil, namely those who are formulating and trying to answer the great questions in their fields of action.
