To keep it short, it won’t be a surprise if the cost to fix the losses would overcome the investments we have done to achieve the present unsustainable development.
Carbon Inputs and Water Uptake in Deep Soils of an Eastern Amazon Forest
Carbon Inputs and Water Uptake in Deep Soils of an Eastern Amazon Forest
Rooting depth affects soil profiles of water uptake and carbon inputs. Here we explore the importance of deep roots in a mature tropical forest of eastern Amazonia, where a throughfall exclusion experiment was conducted to test the resilience of the forest to...
