Approach:
The degree to which primary production, soil carbon, and trace gas fluxes in tropical forests of
the Amazon are limited by moisture availability and other environmental factors has been examined
using an ecosystem modeling application for the country of Brazil. A regional geographic
information system (GIS) serves as the data source of climate drivers, satellite "greenness"
images, land cover, and soil properties for input to the NASA-CASA model over a 8-km grid
resolution.
