abstract = "Reconstruction of an 83-year record (1903 to 1985) of the
discharge of the Amazon River shows that there has been no
statistically significant change in discharge over the period of
record and that predominant interannual variability occurs on the
2- to 3-year time scale. Oscillations of river discharge predate
significant human influences in the Amazon basin and reflect both
extrabasinal and local factors. Cross-spectrum analyses of Amazon
flow anomalies with indicators of the El Niņo-Southern Oscillation
phenomenon suggest that the oscillations in the hydrograph are
coupled to the tropical Pacific climate cycle..",
