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, 2016 Significance For isolated regions of the planet, organic peroxy radicals produced as intermediates of atmospheric photochemistry have been expected to follow HO 2 rather than NO pathways. Observational evidence, however, has been lacking.
