This paper shows recent progress in our understanding of climate variability and trends in
the Amazon region, and how these interact with land use change. The review includes an …

This paper reviews recent progress in the study and understanding of extreme seasonal
events in the Amazon region, focusing on drought and floods. The review includes a history …

Tipping elements are nonlinear subsystems of the Earth system that have the potential to
abruptly shift to another state if environmental change occurs close to a critical threshold …

We have observed that the dry-season length (DSL) has increased over southern Amazonia
since 1979, primarily owing to a delay of its ending dates (dry-season end, DSE), and is …

This study provides an updated analysis of the evolution of seasonal rainfall intensity in the
Amazon basin, considering the 1981–2017 period and based on HOP (interpolated HYBAM …

This paper reviews recent progress made in our understanding of the functioning and
variability of the South American Monsoon System (SAMS) on time scales varying from …

Extreme climatic events and land‐use change are known to influence strongly the current
carbon cycle of A mazonia, and have the potential to cause significant global climate …

Abstract Changes in rainfall affect drinking water, river and surface runoff, soil moisture,
groundwater reserve, electricity generation, agriculture production and ultimately the …

Species distribution is strongly driven by local and global gradients in water availability but
the underlying mechanisms are not clear. Vulnerability to xylem embolism (P50) is a key trait …

Land use and land cover (LULC) changes strongly affect local hydrology and sediment
yields. The current study focused on a basin in the Brazilian Amazon and had the following …
