The Tumucumaque Mountains National Park ({{lang-pt|Parque Nacional Montanhas do Tumucumaque}}; {{IPA-pt|tumukuˈmaki}}) is situated in the Amazon Rainforest in the Brazilian states of Amapá and Pará. It is bordered to the north by French Guiana and Suriname.

History

Tumucumaque was declared a national park on August 23, 2002, by the Government of Brazil, after collaboration with the WWF.[1]

It is part of the Amapá Biodiversity Corridor, created in 2003.{{sfn|Corredor de Biodiversidade do Amapá Biodiversity Corridor|p=43}}

The conservation unit is supported by the Amazon Region Protected Areas Program.{{sfn|Full list: PAs supported by ARPA}}

Geography

Tumucumaque Mountains National Park has an area of more than {{convert|38800|km2|sqmi|-1}}, making it the world's largest tropical forest national park and larger than Belgium.[2] This area even reaches {{convert|59000|km2|sqmi|-1}} when including the bordering Guiana Amazonian Park, a national park in French Guiana.

This combination of protected areas is still smaller than the three national parks system in the Brazil-Venezuelan border, where the Parima-Tapirapeco, Serranía de la Neblina and Pico da Neblina national parks have a combined area of over {{convert|73000|km2|sqmi|-1}}.

But the latter is certainly smaller if the Tumucumaque Mountains National Park (Brazil) and the adjacent Guiana Amazonian Park (France) is combined with large neighbouring protected areas in northern Pará, Brazil, such as Grão-Pará Ecological Station, Maicuru Biological Reserve, and many others. The importance is that this makes the Guiana Shield one of the best protected and largest ecological corridor of tropical rainforests in the world. It is an uninhabited region and is of high ecological value: most of its animal species, mainly fish and aquatic birds, are not found in any other place in the world.

It is a habitat for jaguars, primates, aquatic turtles, and harpy eagles.[3]

The highest point of the Brazilian state of Amapá is located there, reaching 701 meters.[4]

Climate

The climate is tropical monsoon (Köppen: Aw), common in areas of northern Brazil in transition from biomes to the Amazon Forest.[5] It has an average temperature of 25 °C (77 °F) and accumulated rainfall ranging from 2,000 (7.87 in) to 3,250 mm (127.95 in) per year.[6]
