摘要：The Brazilian Amazonia presented the important dynamic changes in land use/land cover in the last two decades, mainly at the forest and savanna transition zones, due to human activities related to selective logging, cattle raising farms, and agricultural settlements. The general objective of this study is to verify the potential application of Soil Adjusted Vegetation Index (SAVI) derived from Thematic Mapper (TM)/Landsat data to relate with biomass values of forest and savanna formations. The thematic classification of synthetic SAVI image by the Iterated Conditional Mode (ICM) algorithm was used to show the spatial distribution of vegetation cover and its biomass. The results of this study are an important task to support a program for monitoring Amazonia region using remote sensing data
