Amazon jungle facing death sentence

Much of the Amazon forest "is definitely at risk" disappearing in the next century if pressures on the forest continue.

According to a new study, most of the Amazon forest is facing " death" due to deforestation and drought caused in the next century.

Amazon forest is facing "death" due to deforestation and drought caused in the next century.

According to the study, although the forecast of low rainfall will not make the Amazon forest completely dead, most of the forest "is definitely at risk," one of the researchers said.

The Amazon water cycle is described as "one of the great things of nature". But the forest has been under pressure from the wood industry, agriculture and the effects of climate change.

The new study looks at what happens if the dry season is more severe here, Independent reported.

Scientists found that there was a loop, in which drought made the forest less trees, and fewer trees would reduce rainfall.

The Amazon rainforest is so wide that it has an important impact on the global climate.

Dr Delphine Clara Zemp, from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, Germany, one of the scientists involved in the study, said : "The Amazon rainforest is one of the key elements in the system of " On the one hand, reduced rainfall will increase the risk of deforestation. On the other hand, deforestation can increase regional droughts."

Reduced rainfall will increase the risk of deforestation and deforestation which may increase regional droughts.(Illustration).

"So more droughts can lead to less forest, and continue to lead to more droughts. Such a loop continues. However, it is unclear what happens to trees and the atmosphere of the forest. How will".

Amazon forest has undergone significant changes in weather.

Anja Rammig, of the Potsdam Institute, said: "Today, the rainy season is getting wetter and the dry season in the south and east of Amazon is getting drier. Everything happens because of changes in sea surface temperature, The reward for bringing steam to the tropics.

"It is not clear whether this will continue, but recent observations suggest that large-scale drought may occur during the dry season in the region."
