Interactions Between Biosphere, Atmosphere, and Human Land Use in the Amazon Basin: An Introduction

Nagy, Laszlo; Artaxo, Paulo; Forsberg, Bruce R.

Pages: 3 –15

[The prospect of accelerated global warming and the large-scale conversion of natural vegetation to agricultural land in the Amazon basin was the driving motive for the establishment of the Large-scale Biosphere–Atmosphere (LBA) experiment in 1998. The aim of this research programme, in...

Biogenic Volatile Organic Compounds in Amazonian Forest Ecosystems

Jardine, Kolby; Jardine, Angela

Pages: 19 –33

[Plants produce and emit a large array of volatile metabolites termed biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) as an integral part of primary and secondary metabolism. Although well studied for their impacts on atmospheric processes, there is much to learn about their biological functions. It...

The Hydrology and Energy Balance of the Amazon Basin

Coe, Michael T.; Macedo, Marcia N.; Brando, Paulo M.; Lefebvre, Paul; Panday, Prajjwal; Silvério, Divino

Pages: 35 –53

[The Amazon basin is the planet’s largest and most intense land-based centre of precipitation. This convective system is driven by high net surface radiation, which is dissipated via fluxes of latent heat and sensible heat. Over the long term (1 year or greater), incoming precipitation over the...

Extreme Seasonal Climate Variations in the Amazon Basin: Droughts and Floods

Marengo, José A.; Williams, Earle R.; Alves, Lincloln M.; Soares, Wagner R.; Rodriguez, Daniel A.

Pages: 55 –76

[The last 10 years have featured intense climate-hydrological extremes in the Amazon region: 2005, 2009, 2010, 2012–2013, and 2014–2015 leading to great impacts, such as large-scale droughts and floods, some of them being classified as ‘once-in-a-century’ events. Historical records show previous...

The Amazon Carbon Balance: An Evaluation of Methods and Results

Grace, John

Pages: 79 –100

[A comparison is made between two strategies to characterise the Amazonian carbon budget: (i) the ‘bottom-up’ approach using plot data and remote sensing and (ii) the ‘top-down’ approach using aircraft-based measurements in the planetary boundary layer. Plot data provide insights into processes...

Climate and the Amazonian Carbon Balance

Gloor, Emanuel

Pages: 101 –117

[Amazonia is an important part of the global climate system and its rainforests host a large ‘labile’ carbon pool which may possibly feedback on climate on rather short timescales. Since the 1980s, the mean temperature in Amazonia has steadily increased and the hydrological cycle has intensified...
LitStream

Aquatic Ecosystems

Melack, John M.

Pages: 119 –148

[The emissions of carbon dioxide and methane from aquatic ecosystems to the atmosphere are a significant component of the carbon cycle in the Amazon basin. Recent estimates of inundated areas, of gas transfer velocities, and of concentrations and fluxes of carbon dioxide in diverse aquatic...

Ecosystem–Atmosphere Exchanges of CO2 in Dense and Open ‘Terra Firme’ Rainforests in Brazilian Amazonia

Araújo, Alessandro C.; von Randow, Celso; Restrepo-Coupe, Natalia

Pages: 149 –169

[The Large-Scale Biosphere–Atmosphere (LBA) programme established a network of eddy covariance flux towers across Brazilian Amazonia. These towers are providing important data about the characteristics of energy, water, and carbon fluxes across the region. Scientists have historically viewed the...

Overview of Forest Carbon Stocks Study in Amazonas State, Brazil

Higuchi, Niro; Suwa, Rempei; Higuchi, Francisco G.; Lima, Adriano J. N.; dos Santos, Joaquim; Noguchi, Hideyuki; Kajimoto, Takuya; Ishizuka, Moriyoshi

Pages: 171 –187

[Tropical forests, specially the Amazon, are important ecosystems in research on the effects of climate change on biological systems and their functioning. The main relationship between the forest and the climate is the carbon fluxes and stock. Although carbon stock estimates of tropical forests...

Recent Changes in Amazon Forest Biomass and Dynamics

Phillips, Oliver L.; Lewis, Simon L.; Higuchi, Niro; Baker, Tim

Pages: 191 –224

[RAINFOR is a long-term collaboration to understand the dynamics of Amazon ecosystems from the ground-up. Using a framework for systematic monitoring of the forests centred on replicated, permanent plots that measure ecosystem composition and behaviour over time, researchers carefully track the...
