The BR-DWGD data were aggregated into time-series maps at 28×28 km grid-cell resolution. To identify the deforestation signal on the onset of the agricultural rainy season (O<sup>′</sup><sub>i,j,t</sub>), rainfall volume (R<sup>′</sup><sub>i,j,t</sub>) and maximum temperature (T<sub>max</sub><sup>′</sup><sub>i,j,t</sub>) in each crop season, we had to remove the influence of geographic location, elevation and interannual variability (the latter due to large-scale climate mechanisms). We adopted a four-step process based on [20] (Fig. S5) to determine anomalies and to assess our detrending method's effectiveness. Our methodology includes the following steps: (1) using machine learning algorithms to model climate variability across the Brazilian Cerrado, (2) evaluating model accuracy, (3) applying a detrending procedure to remove trends related to other factors than deforestation, and (4) validating the detrending process to ensure its reliability.</p> |
