Deforestation reduces rainfall and agricultural revenues in the Brazilian Amazon
AT Leite-Filho, BS Soares-Filho, JL Davis… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
It has been suggested that rainfall in the Amazon decreases if forest loss exceeds some
threshold, but the specific value of this threshold remains uncertain. Here, we investigate the …
