Fig. 2From: Carbon uptake by mature Amazon forests has mitigated Amazon nations’ carbon emissionsEstimated Amazon carbon fluxes 1980–2010. For each nation three fluxes are represented: the net C flux mature forests (green and negative), the net fluxes from deforestation, i.e., losses from deforestation and degradation minus gains from regrowth (red and positive), and fossil fuel emissions (black and positive). Units are in Tg carbon per year (=1012 g C yr−1)Back to article page
