Sensitivity of South American tropical forests to an extreme climate anomaly

A. C. Bennett, T. R. D. Sousa, et al.

This research reveals the vulnerability of South American tropical forests to extreme drought events, particularly highlighted during the 2015-2016 El Niño. With a careful analysis of long-term tree data from 123 forest plots, the study uncovers how the biomass carbon sink ceased, raising crucial implications for climate change defenses. The extensive collaboration amongst a diverse team of authors adds significant weight to the findings.... show more
