Synopsis
This series of animations depicts the results of a computer simulation of the effects of deforestation on the surface temperature and precipitation in the Amazon region. Six animations are shown - a control simulation, a deforestation simulation, and the difference between the two for both surface temperature and rainfall. The period simulated is the second half of 1987. Note: Six animations depicting the differences in surface temperature and precipitation in the Amazon with and without significant deforestation. Data Collected: 1987/07/01-1987/12/29.
