Over a decade, the Amazon<\/strong> Forest <\/strong>has seen a significant worsening of its carbon balance<\/strong>, with a net loss of hundreds of millions of tons. This phenomenon is mainly linked to the impact of human activities, exacerbated by climate events such as El Ni\u00f1o. This is the conclusion of a study<\/a> published in Nature Communications<\/em>.<\/p>\n The research, carried out by a group of scientists from various European, Brazilian, and Chinese academic and research institutions, has made it possible in particular to quantify annual variations of aboveground carbon dioxide between 2010 and 2020<\/strong>. The study distinguishes between natural zones and areas influenced by anthropogenic factors and, above all, provides a more accurate assessment of the phenomenon.<\/p>\n
