The aim of this report is to explore the relationship between the Amazon, climate, and the changes in this relationship that are underway as a result of forest destruction and the release of heat-trapping gases into the atmosphere.
Carbon Inputs and Water Uptake in Deep Soils of an Eastern Amazon Forest
Carbon Inputs and Water Uptake in Deep Soils of an Eastern Amazon Forest
Rooting depth affects soil profiles of water uptake and carbon inputs. Here we explore the importance of deep roots in a mature tropical forest of eastern Amazonia, where a throughfall exclusion experiment was conducted to test the resilience of the forest to...
