HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: C. Smith from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the article: Tropical deforestation causes large reductions in observed precipitation, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of 14/04/2022

The analysis shows large reductions in precipitation for relatively small amounts of forest loss and evidence for reduced sensitivity of precipitation to additional amounts of forest loss (Extended Data Fig 1). The authors report precipitation changes (u0394P) as a function of forest loss by dividing by the difference in forest loss between deforestation and control pixels (units . . .
