“Deforestation and climate change are likely to be the main drivers of this decline,” “森林砍伐和气候变化可能是这一下降的主要驱动因素,” Niklas Boers of PIK and the Technical University of Munich told the BBC. PIK和慕尼黑技术大学的Niklas Boers接受BBC采访时表示。 The study has predicted that...
Along with climate change, extensive deforestation of the Amazon rainforest will increase the number of people in northern Brazil who are at risk of extreme heat — with potentially fatal results and disastrous economic impacts, according to a pioneering study released recently by Brazilian scientists...
Land use change and deforestation can influence local temperature and climate. Here we use a coupled ocean-atmosphere model to assess the impact of savannization of the Amazon Basin on the wet-bulb globe temperature heat stress index under two climate ch

In the last few months, the rate ofdeforestationhere has suddenly increased. The new government of Brazil wants to encourage development. So Erika's research is all the more urgent. 在过去的数月里,这里的森林滥伐率激增。巴西新政府想鼓励当地的发展。因此,艾瑞卡的研究愈显紧迫。
The Amazon and climate change This must be the hardest way to investigate why the trees of the Amazon are so important - climbing right up into them. 这一定是为了研究亚马逊树木的重要性而采用的最困难的方法:直接爬上去。 Down on the ground a scientist, Erika Berenguer, is asking for samples ...
The forest biome of Amazonia is one of Earth's greatest biological treasures and a major component of the Earth system. This century, it faces the dual threats of deforestation and stress from climate change. Here, we summarize some of the latest findings and thinking on these threats, explore...
Since the 1960s, large-scale deforestation in the Amazon Basin has contributed to rising global CO2 concentrations and to climate change. Recent advances in satellite observations enable estimates of gross losses of above-ground biomass (AGB) stocks due
The UN Environment Programme has said warned that the Amazon wildfires threaten "…this preciousnatural resource…" and that theforesthelps mitigate the effects ofclimate change. Insight into the effects of deforestation in the Amazon—and the way it can intensify climate change, particularly at a ...
