Drought Sensitivity of the Amazon Rainforest [PDF]

Science, 2009
Amazon forests are a key but poorly understood component of the global carbon cycle. If, as anticipated, they dry this century, they might accelerate climate change through carbon losses and changed surface energy balances. We used records from multiple long-term monitoring plots across Amazonia to assess forest responses to the intense ...

Isoprene photochemistry over the Amazon rainforest [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2014
Isoprene photooxidation is a major driver of atmospheric chemistry over forested regions. Isoprene reacts with hydroxyl radicals (OH) and molecular oxygen to produce isoprene peroxy radicals (ISOPOO).

Self-amplified Amazon forest loss due to vegetation-atmosphere feedbacks

Nature Communications, 2017
Relatively little is understood about seasonal effect of climate change on the Amazon rainforest. Here, the authors show that Amazon forest loss in response to dry-season intensification during the last glacial period was likely self-amplified by ...
