Finally updated my Amazon drought dashboard to retrieve real-time data from ANA after the hack. At least based on the Fonte Boa water level gauge, this is already one of the longest extreme droughts on record: enso-monitor.onrender.com vigília j-hope livre Ayan Fleischmann National Geographic Society

Workshop do PELD-MAUA @grupomaua Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia - Inpa A lot of interesting works are being developed by this amazing group! #wetlands #amazonia

New paper out!! Led by Sthefanie Souza, we showed that flooding filters tree lineages along a hydrographic gradient, being an important factor for species diversification in the Amazon landscape. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec…
