Modeling Amazonian Transitional Forest Micrometeorology

Tuesday, December 29, 2015 - 11:31 in Earth & Climate

What can mathematical modeling teach us about the micrometeorology of the southern Amazonian "transitional" forest? Quite a lot, it turns out. This particular forest is located between the rain forest of the Amazon Basin and the tropical Brazilian Savanna, so it plays a crucial role in both regional and global biogeochemical cycling. Researchers have delved into how the transitional forest ensures a connection between the rain forest and the savanna, as reported in Chaos.
