Variability of carbon and water fluxes following climate extremes over a tropical forest in southwestern Amazonia.

The carbon and water cycles for a southwestern Amazonian forest site were investigated using the longest time series of fluxes of CO2 and water vapor ever reported for this site.The period from 2004 to 2010 included two severe droughts (2005 and 2010) and bostik mvp a flooding year (2009).The effects of such climate extremes were detected in annual
