This ebook bargains a landscape of modern clinical achievements produced in the course of the framework of the Large-Scale Biosphere-Atmosphere programme (LBA) and different examine programmes within the Brazilian Amazon. The content material is very interdisciplinary, with an overarching goal to give a contribution to the knowledge of the dynamic biophysical and societal/socio-economic constitution and functioning of Amazonia as a neighborhood entity and its nearby and international climatic teleconnections. the objective readership comprises complicated undergraduate and post-graduate scholars and researchers trying to untangle the gamut of interactions that the Amazon’s advanced biophysical and social method symbolize.
